since sbuild supports multiple backends and since finding the chroot tarball
re-uses the common functionality of finding tarballs that is also shared with
the schroot and autopkgtest backend, it turns out that to implement this, we
need to make a change that is not unshare-backend specific. Instead, to achieve
this, we need to make a change that will influence all backends. If you'd like
to help, could you test-drive this change:

Thanks!
