Improve alternative build dependency discussion
Alternatives in build dependencies are normally (except for
backports) handled specially by autobuilders to try to maintain
consistent builds. This was documented in Policy, but in a
footnote that people often didn't see.Move this text into the main body of the discussion of build
dependencies and reword it for additional clarity. Add a pointer
to this discussion where alternative dependencies are introduced. - 1233. By Russ Allbery

systemd unit files are now required
systemd is dropping support for the generator that allows it to
automatically create units for init scripts. As a result, all
packages that want to integrate with systemd service management
must start shipping systemd units.State that arranging for services to be automatically started or
stopped is a should, but if the package wishes to do that, a
systemd service unit is a must unless the package is only intended
for use with alternate init systems. Avoid saying that systemd uses
/etc/rcn.d links to determine service ordering. - 1231. By Russ Allbery

Binary and Description optional in .changes
In .changes files for source-only uploads, the Binary and
Description fields are not present. Document this, and be clearer
in the description of the Description field for .changes files that
only descriptions of binary packages are included.
