Lintian is a git checkout on lintian.d.o and from -backports for dak.
Accordingly, I believe we already have support for build-profiles in
Lintian for dak (at least, -backports have 2.5.22.1~bpo70+1 and
build-profiles were added in 2.5.22).

I believe lintian only uses dpkg-source -x and dpkg-deb --fsys-tarfile
for unpacking.  I suspect these work without looking for control-fields
(i.e. ignores the presence of build-profiles), but if I am wrong, then
we also need a new version of dpkg on lintian.d.o for lintian.
