Bug#381036: [Pbuilder-maint] Bug#381036: pdebuild, add missing features of normal debuild

Please feel free to go ahead.

I the design should probably be something like:

debuild runs:
1.	builds normally with dpkg-buildpackage
2.	(NEW) builds with pbuilder (or cowbuilder), detecting /var/cache/pbuilder/base.cow or base.tgz
3.	runs lintian/linda on the result as usual.
