Test changes during install/upgrade

If you are working on changes to the install/upgrade process, and not the reconfigure process itself, you can use the scripts/repack-deb tool to quickly repack an existing GitLab deb with changes from your local branch. It will repack the existing deb file into a new deb containing the local content from

config/templates/package-scripts
files/gitlab-cookbook/
files/gitlab-ctl-commands
files/gitlab-ctl-commands-ee
