Bug description:
Currently for custom kernels, it's necessary to keep a separate
annotations file that often gets out of sync with the corresponding
file in debian.master/.
The "debian/scripts/config-check" script can be changed to allow
additional annotations files to act as overlays over the original
annotations file, allowing custom kernels to override the policies
just for the relevant configs.
As an initial proposal, any file matching the pattern
"$DEBIAN/config/*.annotations" could be considered as an overlay file
and policies could be overridden on a config basis. That means that
any mention to a config in the overlay file would discard all the
policies for that config in the original file.
