I'm thinking of working on this.  I think it will be straightforward.
The only possibility for complexity is if I've missed something about
how pbuilder works.  Would the following work:

1. user runs `dgit <dgit opts> pbuilder <pbuilder opts>`
2. dgit builds a source package and _source.changes in its own way
3. dgit invokes `pbuilder build foo_1.2.3-1.dsc <pbuilder opts>`
4. dgit invokes mergechanges to merge its _source.changes and the binary
   .changes produced by pbuilder.

This is exactly the pattern of `dgit sbuild`, so we can probably
refactor the cmd_sbuild() sub and then trivially add cmd_pbuilder().

Let me know if you think this will work.
