[Freedombox-pkg-team] Bug#878699: plinth: [WIP] Add tests

[James Valleroy]

Package: plinth
Severity: wishlist

The attached patch adds tests for autopkgtest (ci.debian.net). It
includes the test suite from upstream.

Currently there is a problem which causes the test run to fail with
"Test dependencies are unsatisfiable". It tries to install fail2ban
and then start the service:

$ sudo autopkgtest-build-lxc debian sid
...
$ autopkgtest --apt-upgrade -B $(debc --list-debs) . -- lxc --sudo autopkgtest-sid
...
Setting up fail2ban (0.9.7-2) ...
Created symlink /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/fail2ban.service → /lib/systemd/system/fail2ban.service.
Job for fail2ban.service failed because the control process exited with error code.
See "systemctl  status fail2ban.service" and "journalctl  -xe" for details.
invoke-rc.d: initscript fail2ban, action "start" failed.
