having failed to make headway on the OpenPGP.js packaging yet, i've gone
ahead with an ugly workaround for now of shipping openpgp.js sources in
debian/missing-sources/.  I did this because i want it to be possible
for people to try enigmail and the newer thunderbird from debian
repositories for now.

fwiw, I don't think this is the Right Thing for inclusion in debian
unstable, and i won't be uploading enigmail to unstable until we've got
the rest of the openpgp.js packaging is sorted out, though.

I'm retitling this bug report to correspond to moving it to unstable.

i welcome any help on 787774.
