Bug#837761: vim: doesn't honor local admin settings in /etc/vim/vimrc.local

[Francois Gouget]

Package: vim-common
Version: 2:8.0.0003-1
Followup-For: Bug #837761

Dear Maintainer,

The fix in 8.0.0022 does not sound like much of a fix: it is still
impossible to override specific defaults.vim settings.

I'll also note that, at least in 8.0.0003, defaults.vim says:

| " This is loaded if no vimrc file was found.
| " Except when Vim is run with "-u NONE" or "-C".
| " Individual settings can be reverted with ":set option&".

Which is patently false:
* /etc/vim/vimrc exists and yet /usr/share/vim/vim80/defaults.vim is
  loaded too.
* The settings cannot be reverted with ":set option&" since the Debian
  package makes it impossible to run commands after defaults.vim.

As harald said this is at the root an "order of inclusion" issue. So a
better solution would be to load all these extra configuration files 
near the end of /etc/vim/vimrc but before /etc/vim/vimrc.local is 
invoked.
