Debhelper script to help packaging kernel patches

The dh_installkpatches script produces the "apply" and "unpatch" scripts that kernel-package uses to automatically handle kernel patches. It provides a number of useful features like: 

 * does its best to never break your kernel source tree
 * allows you to select any provided version of a patch
 * handle patch inter-dependencies

Patches are described in a Debian-standard control-file-like format.
