For what it's worth: Debian provides a

tailored to its specific setup of PostgreSQL clusters. That
has worked well for me across several major version bumps.

Indeed I have that program installed in /usr/lib but the man pages state
that it cannot handle tablespaces.

Wow, that is odd.  I wonder why.

Best guess is because pg_upgradecluster is a wrapper script that by
default uses pg_dump/pg_restore. Using is pg_upgrade is the second
choice.

http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/trusty/man8/pg_upgradecluster.8.html

But pg_upgrade supports tablespaces, and I assume pg_dump/pg_restore do
as well.


I don't think it is about the underlying programs, it is about teaching the wrapper script what do with the choices. Sort of like pgAdmin not supporting all pg_backup/pg_restore combinations or for that matter pg_restore not knowing what to do with a plain text pg_dump file.
