Please drop dh-make boilerplate from your d/rules file (SoB sponsering of ignition-math2)

Hi Jose,

thanks for working on ignition-math2.

It is more convenient if you open an RFS bug (if you did its missing on
the SoB page[1]) to enable discussion.  So I move it here to the
maintainers list.  Your package is also featuring the "most hated"
boilerplate in debian/rules file and so I decided to start my fight
against it and added a condition 5 which needs to be fullfilled if you
want me to sponsor your package. ;-)

As an additional note:  I started using debhelper 10 and I'm now
switching to debhelper 11 since its available in testing.  If you have
good reasons to stick to compat level 9 that is fine for me but may be
you just did not realised the potential compat level bump.

Kind regards

       Andreas.
