add dpkg-dev as essential

# added dpkg-dev as an essential package , as we need to be able to
programmatically generate the # qDEB_HOST_MULTIARCH tuple in various
scripts and settings.  neon is a dev based distro anyway and # it only
 adds 54 Mb of archives and 194 Mb disk space. can revisit if necessary
 but don't think# anyone will even notice.
