Control: tags -1 + patch

I was reminded of this by an indented diff similar to my GTK example accidentally getting into Debian's i3 package recently (https://bugs.debian.org/1126992). See also https://bugs.debian.org/1081436 in which I suggested that `gbp pq export` could avoid this indented-diff-in-commit-message pattern.

This seems like quite an elegant solution to this - if dpkg is already aware of the boundary between header and patch, it adds very little new code to be able to do this.

Guillem, would you be willing to consider Tj's patch? At least for unstable?
