From the metadata retrieved from debbugs.gnu.org, we have just a list of
version strings. There is no indication about the meaning:

 (found_versions "24.3")

One could teach people to use also package names but mere version
numbers, but that's up to the package maintainer's will. So up to now
the strings provided by found_versions will be used as tags, until
there's a better rule for matching.

The debbugs server returns also a list like

 (found
  (item
   (key . 24.3)
   (value)))

Maybe this could go the direction we want. Obviously, in this example
"key" should be Emacs, and "value" should be 24.3. Then we might also
get something like (if set properly by submitter or maintainer)

 (found
  (item
   (key . "emacs")
   (value . 24.3))
  (item
   (key . "org")
   (value . 8.0.3)))

The IMPLICATED_SOFTWARE property proposed by you could be derived from the

 (affects)

entry. But I haven't seen ever that somebody uses this attribute. It's
always empty, as shown in this example.
