package is there to separate the installation of /etc/crontab and

- installing the new packages "cron-daemon-common" and "cron"
provide identical contents under /etc/cron.*, then installing
the "cron" package from debian/bullseye.
- when "cron-daemon-common" and "cron" are installed the only
differences in files /etc/crontab are brackets instead of
parentheses (which prevent launching a subshell)

* Add bitstring.h as a dependency to CRON_OBJ and CRONTAB_OBJ
* applied changes proposed by debian Janitor
(https://salsa.debian.org/debian/cron/-/merge_requests/2/diffs)
- fixed a line length in d/changelog
- bumped Standards-Version: 4.6.0, debhelper-compat (= 13)
- erased debian/cron.prerm, which contained nothing useful.
* replaced a sequence of spaces by a tab in line 18 of debian/crontab.main,
so line 18 has the same syntax as following lines of the same file.
Closes: #930765
* added the command `dpkg-statoverride --remove /usr/bin/crontab`, to
be called when the package is purged. Closes: #984586
