xfsprogs participates in dependency loops relevant to architecture

scrub/xfs_scrub_all.in and tools/xfsbuflock.py are the only python
scripts in xfsprogs. We ship the first one as-is in the xfsprogs
package and we don't ship the second one at all (it's a debugger tool).
AFAICT neither of them really use dh-python, right?
That is right. dh-python is generally used at build time to generate
packages with Python modules, i.e., with files in
/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages. That is not the case in xfsprogs.
For xfsprogs, python3 is only a runtime dependency and that is defined
in the control file as well.
