Title:
  Have dh-cargo-vendored-sources update debian/control rather than just
  verify it

Status in dh-cargo package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  It would be helpful for package update automation if dh-cargo-
  vendored-sources would be updated to directly update the XS-Vendored-
  Sources-Rust field in debian/control rather than only verifying that
  it is correct.

  If updating debian/control directly is undesirable, an alternative is
  to have a different command line option that directly outputs the
  expected XS-Vendored-Sources-Rust line. This would avoid users needing
  to parse stderr which feels awkward.

  My usecase is inclusion in a custom rule in debian/rules to update the
  vendoring of a package instead of a long list of instructions or
  commands. The custom rule would be run locally by the package
  contributor to prepare the updated package and not at buildtime. I
  believe every Rust package in main needs to have either a rule or
  script or documentation to do the vendoring, so I expect my requested
  feature here would be widely used.
