cext: fix memory leak in phases computation

Without this a buffer whose size in bytes is the number of
changesets in the repository is leaked each time the repository is
opened and changeset phases are computed.

Impact: the current code in hgwebdir creates a new `localrepository`
instance for each HTTP request. Since any pull or push is made of several
requests, a team of 100 people can easily produce thousands of such
requests per day.

Being a low-level malloc, this leak can't be seen with the gc module and
tools relying on that, but was spotted by valgrind immediately.

Reproduction
------------

  for i in range(cl_args.iterations):
      repo = hg.repository(baseui, repo_path)
      rev = repo.revs(rev).first()
      ctx = repo[rev]

  del ctx
  del repo
  # avoid any pollution by other type of leak
  # (that should be fixed in 5.8)
  repoview._filteredrepotypes.clear()

  gc.collect()

Measurements
------------

Resident Set Size (RSS), taken on a clone of
mozilla-central for performance analysis (440 000
changesets).

before:
  5.8+hg19.5ac0f2a8ba72  1000 iterations: 1606MB
  5.8+hg19.5ac0f2a8ba72 10000 iterations: 5723MB
after:
  5.8+hg20.e2084d39e145  1000 iterations:  555MB
  5.8+hg20.e2084d39e145 10000 iterations:  555MB
         (double checked, not a copy/paste error)

(e2084d39e14 is the present changeset, before amendment
of the message to add the measurements)

Ensure debuild doesn't run the testsuite, as that could get silly.

We check debian package contents with portable tools so that when
we're on non-debian machines we can still test the packages that are
built using docker.

main deb should have .so but no .py
  $ ar x mercurial_*.deb
  $ tar tf data.tar* | egrep '(localrepo|parsers)'
  ./usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/mercurial/parsers*.so (glob)
mercurial-common should have .py but no .so or .pyc
  $ ar x mercurial-common_*.deb
  $ tar tf data.tar* | egrep '(localrepo|parsers)'
  ./usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/mercurial/pure/parsers.py
