Bug#819585: local-apt-repository: add a "suite" name to local-apt-repos

Hi,
I played around with options for Release file generation. While it's possible to put Packages/Sources files in a subdirectory and specify that as Suite and Codename when building the Release file, it still doesn't enable the use of e.g.
apt install foo/local
So unless I'm missing something, fixing this would require a suite and a component which in turn would require the full dists/foo/bar/binary-* tree.
Generating this is no longer feasible with plain apt-ftparchive and would require reprepro or similar tools.
