[Bug 1746891] [NEW] [DRAFT] [MIR] pv

[Julian Andres Klode]

Public bug reported:

[Availability]
Available in universe, built on all architectures.

[Rationale]
pv shows progress reports for data passing through a pipeline. It has recently become a requirement for GKE and thus needs to be in main.

[Security]
It only passes data from stdin to stdout and writes progress on stderr, so should not be problematic.

[Quality assurance]
Upstream has a test suite run at build. There do not seem to be any important bugs. It just works after installing.

[Dependencies]
None.

[Standards compliance]

[Maintenance]
foundations-bugs is subscribed now. The package is relatively small, and should not be a huge burden, we can probably keep it synced.

[Background information]
