The linux-headers package contains unstripped binaries. Lintian
complains about this:
E: linux-headers-6.12.0-rc4-g7e04fcfc6195: unstripped-binary-or-object [usr/src/linux-headers-6.12.0-rc4-g7e04fcfc6195/scripts/asn1_compiler]

It's not possible to outright strip every package built with
"debian/rules" as, for instance, the "binary-image" target shouldn't be
stripped because it contains debug information that the
"binary-image-dbg" target will make use of.
Thus conditionally use "dh_strip" on the "binary-headers" target after
using "dh_builddeb" to strip only the contents of the package lintian
complains about. Also pass the "--no-automatic-dbgsym" option to make
sure no headers-dbgsym package is created.
