In the absence of objections to my analysis, I suggest we proceed on
the following basis:
A .buildinfo file is not useful for a source-only upload which is
veried to be identical to the intended source as present in the
uploader's version control (eg, by the use of dgit).
Therefore, dgit should not include .buildinfos in source-only uploads
it performs. If dgit sees that a lower-layer tool like
dpkg-buildpackage provided a .buildinfo for a source-only upload, dgit
should strip it out of .changes.
