dgit-maint-*(7): Advice for git-debpush users
dgit-maint-native(7) doesn't need updating because git-debpush(1) is
clear that quilt mode options are required only for non-native
packages.
This commit leaves `dgit push{,-source}` as the first choice, with
git-debpush(1) given as an alternative. We might want to change that
in the future, but for the time being this makes sense.
Closes: #932520
