tool to make module package creation easier

The module-assistant tool (also known as m-a) helps users and maintainers with managing external kernel modules packaged for Debian. It can do: 

 - automated preparation of build environment for modules compilation
   (eg. automatical detection and installation of required kernel
   source/headers)
 - automated module source downloads
 - configuring and keeping track of external and localy built modules
   packages
 - semi-automated multiple builds for multiple kernel versions

It also contains some framework to be used by the build-scripts in the accompanying modules-source packages in Debian.
