Bug#910541: diffoscope: filing bugs on diffoscope is cumbersome for non-Debian contributors

Tryin to consider myself an active contributor to diffoscope, I'd hate
to have two different places to check for bugs.  That probably goes for
all the other project that are non debian specific though (I remember
reading about people advocating for upstream developers to check their
downstream bug trackers).


That said, I think this bug report lacks a lot from input by non-Debian
contributors.  I'm here explicitly CCing the only two that wrote in the
bug, probably not even knowing tha they are not automatically subscribed
to the bug report…

I'd like to hear what potential bug reporters would like to see, rather
than us trying to guess what they might think; therefore, I believe this
bug should (well, could) be deferred to in-person discussion in Paris.
