dpkg-parsechangelog: Add new --show-field option to print a field value
One of the most common uses of this program is to retrieve specific field values from debian/rules file, but currently the output needs to be filtered, which might introduce subtle bugs. This option will make life easier for packagers, among others. Closes: #284664
