lvm2 udebs vs. libaio1-udeb (was: Progress on t64 transition -> building the installer in sid)

Checking libaio's changelog (last mail got sent a little too fast,
sorry) is enlightening: this library required special attention and
wasn't just about getting rebuilt with a different package name.

  https://tracker.debian.org/news/1509816/accepted-libaio-03113-6-source-into-unstable/

Guillem is absolutely right regarding avoiding the roundtrip to NEW and
d-i's not caring, but some kind of heads-up to debian-boot@ (now cc'd)
would have been welcome.

It'd be nice if the Debian LVM Team (hello waldi) could pick it up from
here and see whether requesting a binNMU is what makes most sense here,
or if there other plans on the t64 front. A local, cowbuilder-powered
rebuild of unstable's lvm2 results in udebs referencing libaio.so.1t64
as expected (i.e. libaio1t64's shlibs).


Cheers,
