Subject: [PATCH] Fix build process to follow official Debian backporting
 guidelines

- Add dch --bpo to add backport revision number as per Debian guidelines
- Add fakeroot debian/rules binary test build before main build
- Use dpkg-buildpackage --build=binary --unsigned-changes as recommended
- This follows the SimpleBackportCreation workflow from Debian wiki
- Should finally produce proper .deb binary packages
