A dependency on an arch-specific package which is not a valid candidate
should lead to the depending package not being a candidate.
For now we ensure that the generated excuses output remains the same,
so that we don't have to wait for consumers to adapt to a new format.
Changing the output format should be revisited at a later point.
See Debian bug #693068.

Although it's technically correct, none of the other messages include closing
tags, and at least grep-excuses isn't prepared to deal with closing tags.

In the unsat_deps case, it was used to update a field in the excuse,
but the field was never read anywhere.

Use the is_valid in "html"-method to determine whether to write "Valid
candidate" or not. This avoids the occasional:
* Valid candidate
* Invalidated by dependency
* Not considered

Previously we could not reliably detect whether an excuse's dependency
from a source package to a binNMU was valid, as the excuse did not
contain sufficient information to determine the set of architecture(s)
on which the dependency existed.
By modifying the representation of the dependency list in the excuse to
include an architecture list we can walk the relationships in reverse
in order to sanity-check the source -> binNMU dependency.
