Subject: v9 done

* Finalized v9 mode, which is the new recommended default.
  (But continuing to use v8 is also fine.)
* It is now deprecated for a package to not specify a compatability
  level in debian/compat. Debhelper now warns if this is not done,
  and packages without a debian/compat will eventually FTBFS.
