Ah, sorry, I misunderstood.  No, I haven't seen anything in apk that
would give us extra info we need when packages are renamed, so we'll
have to continue handling them manually in ASU itself.

Here's what we're doing right now, the info in the 'package_changes_list'
gets passed to the ASU clients (auc, owut, LuCI app) and they do the
replacements before sending the build request back to the ASU server.

But, a lot of renamings are completely transparent because ASU generally
only deals with top-level packages.  If you rename a package that's
installed as a dependency of one of the top-level ones, the ASU server
never even sees it, so the replacement "just happens".
