Bug#833284: reprotest: please add a "buildpath" variation to reprotest

[Ximin Luo]

Control: retitle -1 add the ability to disable buildpath variations

reprotest actually already builds in /tmp/autopkgtest.*/control vs experimental, but I'll add an option to disable this variation. When it is disabled, parallel builds would be impossible to make work (with most virtual servers), though.
