Revert "dpkg-gensymbols: Use the original template symbols file when
diffing"
This reverts commit 9251cc40db1793d01ad0c27408fb0f170c067772.
There's too much information not being preserved in the symbols files to
be able to regenerate templates for them. Although the #PACKAGE# pattern
has been fixed, there is still comments, #include directives and symbols
order. Let's revert it and consider the request that prompted the change
requires too much work for too little gain.
Closes: #785937, #786840
