Bug#782171: debsources: consider using cloc instead of sloccount

[Matthieu Caneill <matthieu.caneill@gmail.com>]

Package: qa.debian.org
Severity: wishlist
Usertags: debsources

cloc (http://cloc.sourceforge.net/#Languages) supports more languages
than sloccount (e.g. Scala, Javascript), and could be used to count
the lines of code in every package.

This has to be carefully tested, since it needs to run of very big
packages, and be fast enough.

Cheers,
