Bug description:
  DEB_BUILD_PROFILES= can be used in Debian to specify a build profile
  to use with dpkg-buildpackage. We want to use it in the systemd
  project to build the upstream packages for the Ubuntu autopkgtest
  cloud CI on Github. But in the Ubuntu's fork of dpkg,
  DEB_BUILD_PROFILES's value is ignored and unconditionally swapped with
  'noudeb'. This makes it impossible to use package-specific profiles,
  and it's a regression w.r.t Debian.

  To reproduce it, simply print the content of DEB_BUILD_PROFILES in
  d/rules in any package and build with DEB_BUILD_PROFILES=foo dpkg-
  buildpackage.
