Thank you @superm1 and @juergh! I have not made packages outside of
security patches and I immensely appreciate the advice.

Since not everyone who needs linux-firmware wants amd64-micocode, I believe it 
should be #9: "Reorg: A and B existed; move some files from A to B; new A does 
not require new B".
        
So linux-firmware needs:
Depends: amd64-microcode (<<NEW_VERSION) [amd64]

and amd64-microcode needs:
Breaks: linux-firmware (<<NEW_VERSION)
Replaces: linux-firmware (<<NEW_VERSION)

Does that sound appropriate?
