I notice:
  Get rid of extract-source job

While I'm fine with that, I currently (ab)use the extract-source job in
branch2repo/debian-installer in order to allow me to do slightly evil
things, such as editing the debian/control file between unpacking and
building:

https://salsa.debian.org/installer-team/debian-installer/-/blob/master/debian/salsa-ci.yml?ref_type=heads#L43-67

so if we're going to get rid of it, then I guess I'll need some sort of
hook between the unpack and the build in order to play such tricks.

I'm of course very happy to help build this, so if there's a pre-release
version with extract-source removed, I'll see if I can work out
where/how I can make it do what I need.

Cheers, Phil.

P.S. I thought I'd also mention that I'd quite like to merge bits of
`branch2repo` into `pipeline` if that's possible, but wrote too much for
an aside, so I'll send another mail about that in a little while.
