commit 43a2283f8a7e22de1b1237b7a5eb8c321ea12c77

debian: Use a different way to avoid failing install without kernel module.

The dh_installinit --error-handler option makes a lot of sense, but after
playing with it for a while I could not figure out a nice way to use it
only for openvswitch-switch without either duplicating the dh_installinit
fragments in postinst and prerm (the actual bug that was reported) or
omitting them for some package.

Also, we forgot to write the error handler function for the prerm.

This commit switches to a different way to avoid failing the install when
the kernel module is not available, without using --error-handler.

ovsdb-doc: Use minus sign in negative numbers in nroff output.

ovs-vswitchd.conf.db.5 has autogenerated text "at least -1" in one place.
This '-' should be a minus sign, but ovsdb-doc was generating it as a
hyphen.

ovsdb-doc: Convert '-' preceding a number as a minus sign, not a hyphen.

ovs-vswitchd.conf.db.5 contains the following sentence:

   If the interface cannot be added then Open vSwitch sets this column
   to -1.

The '-' in "-1" should be a minus sign, not a hyphen, but the heuristic
in ovsdb-doc wasn't smart enough.  This commit improves the heuristic and
fixes the problem.

debian: Avoid unit test failure when doing "unofficial" builds.

The configure option --with-build-number=0 is interpreted differently in
different places.  The configure script itself accepts 0 as an actual
build number and puts '#define BUILDNR "+build0"' into config.h.  The
code in python/automake.mk treats 0 as "no build number" and puts
'BUILDNR = ""' into version.py.

This commit avoids the problem by not passing 0 as a build number.

debian: Remove some useless files from the dkms pacakge.

This commit removes useless files from the dkms package that caused
lintian warnings.

(Many of the other files in the dkms package are also useless but do not
cause lintian warnings so they are less important.)
