.deb repository: add "dists"

Description

I think the debian repositories at ​http://code.bitlbee.org/debian/ should have a "dists" folder/symlink.

​http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/repository-howto/repository-howto#id3031824 states: 

Example 1. A Standard Debian Repository

(your repository root)
| 
+-dists
  | 
  |-stable
  | |-main

​http://wiki.debian.org/HowToSetupADebianRepository names a "trivial archive" the way it's now in contrast to an "official archive".

​http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/reference/ch02.en.html#_small_public_package_archive also creates a "dists" folder at first.

The clean way to do this, would be to create a folder structure like this: 

http://code.bitlbee.org/debian/
|
+-dists
  |
  |- testing
  | |-main
  | | |-binary-amd64
  | | |-i386
  |- lenny
  | |-main
  | | |-binary-amd64
  | | |-i386
  |- lucid
  | |-main
  | | |-binary-amd64
  | | |-i386
...

For backwards compatibility, Apache rewrite or symlinks could be used.

(This was really reported by ilf but the spamfilter was being a PITA)
