debian: Generate debian/copyright during clean

Ubuntu servers / Launchpad rejects uploads where debian/copyright
is a symbolic link, and lintian warns about them. I think that's
crazy, but I'm tired of having to work around this in SRUs, so
let's just solve it by copying the file during clean: This way,
it won't be in git, but it will be generated during the export
by git-buildpackage.
