The InstallabilityTester is suffering from a lack of clear purpose
because it serves multiple. This commit extracts most of one of these
purposes into the BinaryPackageUniverse class while retaining the
original API of the InstallabilityTester.

Currently autopkgtest tries to install our trigger from unstable and the rest
from testing. If that fails, than autopkgtest has a fall-back to allow all
packages from unstable to be installed. This has two severe issues:
1) the version of the test and the package it came from may be out-of-sync
2) too much from unstable may be installed, even stuff that should not/is not
allowed to migrate as it breaks stuff.
Make sure that test depends also get added to triggers if they are broken.
E.g. imagine the following scenario: trigger X changes (breaks) the output
generated by Y. Package Z has Y in the test dependencies and compares the
output in the autopkgtest. We want to have the opportunity that a new version
is automatically fixing the situation.
Two use cases are currently unsupported: needs-build (autopkgtest restriction)
and test dependencies generated by autodep8.
Admittedly, no policy adds them yet so this is currently no-op code.
However, future commits can start to rely on this infrastructure code.

Flatten the defaultdict(set) for unsat_deps into a standard dict for output
In case autopkgtest triggering is delayed because the required builds aren't
ready yet or the package is not installable, currently there is only the
message that autopktest delays the migration, but no hint why. This commit adds
these hints.
The initial idea was to do this to bootstrap the baseline, but it turns out
that this has the drawback it triggers runs for a package that has a new
autopkgtest where it didn't have it in the version in the target suite. It was
considered harmless (as it would just have a failing reference), but due to
autodep8, package can have a passing result in the target suite while the new
autopkgtest is actually broken. Such a package should not be blocked / getting
a penalty.
The alternative is to make the check here smarter, but as this is only for
bootstrapping, lets do that outside of britney proper.
