diffoscope 147 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

diffoscope (147) unstable; urgency=medium

  * New features:

    - Add output from strings(1) to ELF binaries. It is intended this will
      expose expose build paths that are hidden somewhere within the objdump(1)
      output. (Closes: reproducible-builds/diffoscope#148)
    - Add basic zsh shell tab-completion support.
      (Closes: reproducible-builds/diffoscope#158)

  * Bug fixes:

    - Prevent a traceback when comparing a PDF document that does not contain
      any metadata, ie. it is missing a PDF "/Info" stanza.
      (Closes: reproducible-builds/diffoscope#150)
    - Fix compatibility with jsondiff 1.2.0 which was causing a traceback and
      log the version of jsondiff we are using to aid debugging in the future.
      (Closes: reproducible-builds/diffoscope#159
    - Fix an issue in GnuPG keybox handling that left filenames in the diff.
    - Don't mask an existing test name; ie. ensure it is actually run.

  * Reporting:

    - Log all calls to subprocess.check_output by using our own wrapper utility.
      (Closes: reproducible-builds/diffoscope#151)

  * Code improvements:

    - Replace references to "WF" with "Wagner-Fischer" for clarity.
    - Drop a large number of unused imports (list_libarchive,
      ContainerExtractionError, etc.)
    - Don't assign exception to a variable that we do not use.
    - Compare string values with the equality operator, not via "is" identity.
    - Don't alias an open file to a variable when we don't use it.
    - Don't alias "filter" builtin.
    - Refactor many small parts of the HTML generation, dropping explicit
      u"unicode" strings, tidying the generation of the "Offset X, Y lines
      modified" messages, moving to PEP 498 f-strings where appropriate, etc.
    - Inline a number of single-used utility methods.
