[Bug 1764564] [NEW] dh_clean no longer deletes debian/files

[David Lechner]

Public bug reported:

According to the dh_clean man page, dh_clean "removes some other files
including debian/files". In xenial, this was indeed the case. However,
since I have upgraded to bionic, debian/files is no longer being
deleted, for example, when I run debuild -S -us -uc to build a package.
