[MBF] Obsoleting bzip2 compression in .deb packages

Hi! I'd like to obsolete bzip2 (and lzma) as .deb compressors when building binary packages. dpkg-deb currently emits warnings, this would turn them into errors. For lzma it's fine in Debian as the archive has never accepted them. For bzip2 there are currently 31 source packages that produce some
