Hi!

This is not vcswatch (that scans VCS repositories declared in Vcs-*) but
qa.d.o/cgi-bin/watch (than uses uscan to scan upstream websites).

Behind the scenes, the scanning is handled by UDD, and the 'watch'
script is just a frontend.

The UDD 'upstream' gatherer needs some changes to adjust to this new
uscan behaviour. I will work on this now that there's a package to test
on.
