For packages that use debian/watch to fetch a prebuilt upstream tarball from Artifactory, the local build path had no mechanism to obtain the orig tarball before building. When debian/watch exists and references qartifactory, run uscan --download-current-version inside the container to fetch the orig tarball into /workspace, then use gbp buildpackage -S --git-no-create-orig to produce the .dsc without gbp overwriting the fetched tarball. Pass the .dsc to sbuild for the binary build. Packages with debian/watch pointing to a git forge (GitHub etc.) are unaffected — the qartifactory guard keeps them on the normal gbp orig creation path. Packages using upstream.conf and native packages are also unaffected. Mirrors the same change made to qcom-build-utils build_package action. Signed-off-by: Keerthi Gowda <kbalehal@qti.qualcomm.com>
