bddeb: new --packaging-branch argument to pull packaging from branch (#576)

bddeb builds a .deb package using the template packaging files in
packages/debian/.

The new --packaging-branch flag allows to specify a git branch
where to pull the packaging (i.e. the debian/ directory) from.
This is useful to build a .deb package from master with the very
same packaging which is used for the uploads.
