always run 'dpkg --configure -a' at the end of our dpkg callings
dpkg checks now for dependencies before running triggers, so that packages can now end up in trigger states (especially those we are not touching at all with our calls) after apt is done running. The solution to this is trivial: Just tell dpkg to configure everything after we have (supposely) configured everything already. In the worst case this means dpkg will have to run a bunch of triggers, usually it will just do nothing though. The code to make this happen was already available, so we just flip a config option here to cause it to be run. This way we can keep pretending that triggers are an implementation detail of dpkg. --triggers-only would supposely work as well, but --configure is more robust in regards to future changes to dpkg and something we will hopefully make use of in future versions anyway (as it was planed at the time this and related options were implemented). Note that dpkg currently has a workaround implemented to allow upgrades to jessie to be clean, so that the test works before and after. Also note that test (compared to the one in the bug) drops the await test as its is considered a loop by dpkg now. Closes: 769609
