Bug Description

Debdiffs attached to bugs using submittodebian show up with the filename they had when they were attached.

Since submittodebian is just using mkstemp to generate those filenames, they usually look ugly and, among other things, lack a .diff or .debdiff suffix.

It would be preferable for the debdiffs to use a more reasonable name, e.g. package_ubuntuversion.debdiff or something

  * grab-merge: Use wget -nv rather than -q, so that we see error messages
    (LP: #881967)
  * requestsync: Make --lp the default.
  * submittodebian: Use prettier patch filenames (LP: #887333)
  * mk-sbuild:
    -Allow creating experimental chroots again (LP: #885499)
    - experimental shouldn't be the default in experimental chroots.
    - Add --eatmydata flag (LP: #888440)

    - requestbackport: Files a backport request bug report, including a full
      testing checklist.
  * Don't allow boilerplate prompts through in submittodebian and requestsync
    (LP: #887336)
  * Add changelog retrieval to lpapicache, and use this in syncpackage and
    requestsync. The changelogs should be available in Launchpad sooner than
    Debian PTS.
