[debian-mysql] MariaDB: TokuDB workaround for non amd64-platforms

Hello,

Another thing I noticed while updating MariaDB to .35 is that it now
includes a new database engine TokuDB. However it has a cmake rule to
build it only on amd64. It has never and will never be ported to i386.

Currently the cmake also fiddles with
debian/mariadb-server-5.5.install.in to that is is renamed to omit the
.in ending and will contain or not the TokuDB files, based on if cmake
built them or not.

This was done by upstream, I only patched it to use modern dh and
.install instead of .files.

The solution seems to work, but I just wanted to check with you gurus
if you know any other more elegant way to do 'build and include files
if possible, otherwise omit' -scenarios?
