deprecate the Section member from package struct
A version belongs to a section and has hence a section member of its
own. A package on the other hand can have multiple versions from
different sections. This was "solved" by using the section which was
parsed first as order of sources.list defines, but that is obviously a
horribly unpredictable thing.
Users are way better of with the Section() as returned by the version
they are dealing with. It is likely the same for all versions of a
package, but in the few cases it isn't, it is important (like packages
moving from main/* to contrib/* or into oldlibs …).
Backport of 7a66977 which actually instantly removes the member.
