Package `hi` for Debian.
This commit provides a Docker-based build process for generating `.deb` packages, which can be run in Docker Desktop. I don't love it, but it's the best option I have _right now_ for doing this. The resulting packages: * Install `hi` (and `hi-recanonicalize`), in `/usr/bin`. * Create a user (`hi`) and a data directory (`/var/lib/hi`). * Create and start a systemd service unit for `hi`. Packages are built for arm64 and amd64 (aka x86_64).
