kbuild: deb-pkg: remove support for "name <email>" form for DEBEMAIL
Commit d5940c60e057 ("kbuild: deb-pkg improve maintainer address
generation") supported the "name <email>" form for DEBEMAIL, with
behavior slightly different from devscripts.
In Kbuild, if DEBEMAIL is given in the form "name <email>", it is used
as-is, and DEBFULLNAME is ignored.
In contrast, debchange takes the name from DEBFULLNAME (or NAME) if set,
as described in 'man debchange':
If this variable has the form "name <email>", then the maintainer name
will also be taken from here if neither DEBFULLNAME nor NAME is set.
This commit removes support for the "name <email> form for DEBEMAIL,
as the current behavior is already different from debchange, and the
Debian manual suggests setting the email address and name separately in
DEBEMAIL and DEBFULLNAME. [1]
If there are any complaints about this removal, we can re-add it,
with better alignment with the debchange implementation. [2]
