Fix CVE(s): CVE-2026-11972, CVE-2026-9669
* SECURITY UPDATE: quadratic parse time in the tarfile module when a streaming archive declares an offset past the end of the stream - debian/patches/CVE-2026-11972.patch: stop the forward-seek loop in _Stream.seek() as soon as read() returns no data, in Lib/tarfile.py, so a crafted mode="r|" archive can no longer keep the parser reading an exhausted stream. - CVE-2026-11972 * SECURITY UPDATE: out-of-bounds write when a bz2 decompressor is reused after a decompression error - debian/patches/CVE-2026-9669.patch: record the libbzip2 error in the BZ2Decompressor object and refuse any further decompress() call with ValueError, in Modules/_bz2module.c, so retrying with the same object can no longer re-enter BZ2_bzDecompress() on a bz_stream left in an invalid internal state. - CVE-2026-9669
