[PATCH] debianize: introduce DEBIAN_BREAKS

[srinuv...@siemens.com]

From: Srinuvasan Arjunan <srinuv...@siemens.com>

Allow setting the Breaks field for auto generated control files,
with this changes now user can configure the Breaks in the debian/control file.

Recipes can simply set the Breaks field now by defining the
DEBIAN_BREAKS variable.
