Bug#857596: steam: Ships same files as Valve's official packages with different package name

Michael,

Would you be willing to move the udev rules into the main 'steam'
package instead of the separate 'steam-devices' package?

I believe Valve really likes the idea of having an easy single .deb on
their homepage for people to install, but I don't think that's
compatible with the package split like this.

I'd really like to fix this problem before Ubuntu 17.04 is released
(just over 3 weeks away). I am already working with Valve on this
issue. Please respond so that your input is included.

Thanks,
Jeremy Bicha
