Only trigger autopkgtests for some key packages for gcc-*
Through the usual reverse dependency triggering, gcc-* usually triggers many
hundreds of (mostly universe) tests via libgccN. But:
- This does not help to prevent compiler regressions: as all packages are
built in -proposed anyway, the new compiler is being used immediately, so we
can't hold it back in -proposed.
- It does not trigger toolchain tests which actually are affected, most
importantly binutils and linux.
- This puts enormous stress onto our test infrastructure.
So special case gcc by triggering binutils and linux, and fglrx-installer as a
typical (and important) example of a DKMS package which also needs a compiler,
and libreoffice as our favourite tool chain stress test to cover libgccN.
