Update Installed-Size algorithm used by dpkg since 1.18.0

The previous algorithm relied entirely on du(1) computing the used
size, but depended on the filesystem in use on the build system.

The new algorithm used by dpkg since 1.18.0 (implemented in
commit 9ed7d4d47b73ffe67e1f7d31f899a1dfd43d490b), guarantees a
constant and reproducible size regardless of the build system
filesystem being used. Although it is still an approximation of
the actual size that the package will use on the installed system.

Add changelog for terminology fixes

Use «package metadata» instead of «control information»

Using «control information» when talking about control files and control
formats, and similar gets confusing fast. Switch to package metadata, as
some of the files in the deb(5) archive control member are not usually
in deb822(5) format.

Fix typo (binay instead of binary)

Clarify terminology for Debian control files

Their current descriptive names are very close and easily confused if
one is not paying close attention. Use new terminology that try to
make them less ambiguous and intuitive.

The new and unified terms are:

  * debian/control: «Debian source package template control file»
  * .dsc: «Debian source package control file»
  * DEBIAN/control: «Debian binary package control file»
  * .changes: «Debian upload changes control file»

For contents we use these new terms:

  First stanza in debian/control: «source package stanza»
  Next stanzas in debian/control: «binary package stanza»
