grep-dctrl: Hardcode default input file names.
Until now, grep-dctrl has used a configuration file to determine which
input file it should use by default. Originally, this was motivated by
a desire not to step too much into the toes of dpkg maintainers - it
allowed the fiction that this package doesn't in fact depend on dpkg's
internal interfaces. Over the last decade, however, this consideration
has became essentially moot, and the status and available files are
effectively public interfaces.
Now, theoretically, this configurability could be in use by someone.
However, the same functionality is available by using shell functions and
shell scripts. I twice called for actual use cases for this feature,
explicitly threatening to remove this feature if nobody stepped up.
Nobody did.
