Fix CVE(s): CVE-2026-0864

Type: advisorySources: OSV

* SECURITY UPDATE: configuration-file injection in the configparser module when writing multi-line values that contain carriage returns - debian/patches/CVE-2026-0864.patch: normalize CRLF and bare CR to LF before applying the newline-to-tab continuation escape in _write_section() in Lib/configparser.py, so an attacker-controlled value can no longer inject additional keys and sections into the written file; adds the upstream regression test test_crlf_normalization to Lib/test/test_configparser.py. - CVE-2026-0864
