📄 Description

Add support for the Section, Homepage, Priority and Installed-Size control fields.

For Section and Priority, I used misc and extra as the default values. Install-Size is calculated based on all the entries which go into the CPIO archive. Homepage is by default set to the value of the PackageProjectUrl variable.

You can override Section, Homepage and Priority by setting the DebSection, DebHomepage and DebPriority msbuild variables.
