Bug description:
  Currently for custom kernels, it's necessary to keep a separate
  annotations file that often gets out of sync with the corresponding
  file in debian.master/.

  The "debian/scripts/config-check" script can be changed to allow
  additional annotations files to act as overlays over the original
  annotations file, allowing custom kernels to override the policies
  just for the relevant configs.

  As an initial proposal, any file matching the pattern
  "$DEBIAN/config/*.annotations" could be considered as an overlay file
  and policies could be overridden on a config basis. That means that
  any mention to a config in the overlay file would discard all the
  policies for that config in the original file.
