[CMake] Better handling of library dependencies for CPack

[Rosen Diankov]

As far as i know, the debian changelog file takes in a codename, not a
version number...

It can also take 'unstable' as the distro name, but for some reason
launchpad will reject those.

if you want to specify distros by versions numbers, then we would need
to store a mapping of all versions to codenames inside
DebSourcePPA.cmake..
