Dear Maintainer,

I overrode dh_auto_test, and started getting a 'override_dh_auto_test-does-not-
check-DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS' I-level lintian diagnostic. With debhelper 13, this is
not necessary, see debhelper-compat-checklist(7):

"The dh command sequencer will now skip all hook and override targets for
dh_auto_test, dh_dwz and dh_strip when DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS lists the relevant
nocheck / nostrip options. Any package relying on these targets to always be
run should instead move relevant logic out of those targets. E.g. non-test
related packaging code from override_dh_auto_test would have to be moved to
execute_after_dh_auto_build or execute_before_dh_auto_install."

in my opinion, when debhelper 13 is in effect, the test ought be reversed --
i.e. an I-level diagnostic ought be generated if these checks are present, as
they are unnecessary cruft.

i looked at lintian source, but have already depleted my Perl balance for the
month hacking on uscan today, sorry.
