Bug Description

Binary package hint: ubuntu-dev-tools

Packages which use the (soon to be introduced) ubuntutools.builder module should include a --update option, which updates the relevant builder's chroot before performing the build.

(This will be backed by a .update() method on each of the builder classes, which does whatever magic is necessary)

The update function for sbuild could probably be easier. There are sbuild-update, sbuild-distupgrade, and sbuild-apt.
