Hi,

The attached patch adds Multi-Arch: foreign field to quilt, to annotate
the fact that a quilt of foreign architecture can satisfy (build-)depends
of quilt.

This might seem counter-intuitive as quilt is Arch: all, but this is to tell
the package manager that the depends on quilt (patch, diffstat, bzip2, gettext)
can be installed from a foreign architecture.
