Copy build files from reform-handbook

Matt Carroll requested to merge grimmware/pocket-reform-handbook:packaging into main

Making an attempt at getting this packaged up so we have a reform-handbook equivalent on the pocket reform.

I've made some decisions here that I'm not even remotely married to, it's just easier to prompt the discussion with examples:

  • Calling the package pocket-reform-handbook and the equivalent command pocket-reform-handbook. Instead we'll leave it to reform-help to route the user to the right command. This means that users on either platform can also look at the docs for the other one.
  • I've left minute and josch as the maintainer and uploader respectively
  • I've simply duplicated the original changelog entry from reform-handbook
  • I've tested the html and pdf building and it works just fine, didn't know if anything else needed looking at

A debuild -b -uc -us successfully completed a build with the following lintian errors:

Finished running lintian.

Let me know if anything needs changing or a different approach is needed.
