Oops.

From liblog-any-perl/1.03-1 Changes (for 1.00):
    - Merged Log-Any and Log-Any-Adapter distributions; reduces code
      duplication and ensures Log::Any and adapter framework stay in sync

So liblog-any-adapter-perl has been merged into liblog-any-perl.

I guess we need:
- a versioned Breaks+Replaces
- a virtual dummy package (which will remove src:liblog-any-adapter-perl)
- and then bugs/fixes in all rdeps (some unfortunately versioned, so
  a Provides wouldn't buy us much):
  https://codesearch.debian.net/results/liblog-any-adapter-perl%20path%3Adebian%2Fcontrol/page_0
  where the fix probably is "liblog-any-perl (>= 1.00) | liblog-any-adapter-perl [(>= 0.11)]"


Cheers,
