The policy says we do not transform PyPI names into Debian package names
(or at least, not binary package names). Instead, we transform the name
that you can `import` into a Debian binary package name.

But if src:python-multipart is moving towards the name that you should
canonically import being `python_multipart`, then its correct binary
package name would be python3-python-multipart anyway.
