Bug#554617: please also honour source/lintian-overrides

[martin f krafft]

Package: lintian
Version: 2.2.17
Severity: wishlist

Now that debian/source/ is an accepted directory/namespace (dpkgv3),
it might make sense to also honour source/lintian-overrides in
addition to source.lintian-overrides, which can then later be
deprecated.

Thanks,
