Bug Description

update-manager has a .bzr-builddeb/default.conf file with a [HOOKS] section. That section has a pre-build key that runs a script that does a number of things:

* updates demotions
* updates base-installer
* cleans up
* runs the test suite
* updates a version string

All worthy things to do. However, not for 'bzr bd -S'. IOW, when building the source package for uploading, these things probably do not make sense. It's problematic in the immediate case because of bug 674257.

I think we need to separate hooks for building the source package from hooks for building the binary packages.

This seems reasonable, though perhaps we can just provide extra parameters for the existing hook?
