Recover lost doc/libfbclient2 -> firebird2.5-common-doc symlink

In Lenny, all firebird binary packages were shipping their doc/ directory
with copyright information. Because of the size of that copyright
information, when firebird2.5 packages were introduced in squeeze, they
used symlinks to the doc/firebird2.5-common-doc directory, which contained
a single copy of the copyright file. However, since dpkg won't replace
directory with a symlink, upgrading libfbclient2 from lenny (2.0) to
squeeze (2.5) leaves an empty doc/libfbclient2 directory, breaking the
Policy requirement (12.5) that every binary package ships a copyright
file.

The fix implemented in this version is to check if doc/libfbclient2 is an
empty directory (and not a symlink) and remove it in preinst. If it is a
directory and is not empty, it is renamed with .dpkg-old extension. This
gives dpkg way to unpack the shipped symlink.

Closes: #692948 -missing copyright file after upgrade from lenny to
squeeze to wheezy/sid

Thanks go to Andreas Beckmann for reporting the issue, Julian Taylor,
Slávek Banko and Serafeim Zanikolas for helping with the implementation.
