Fix CVE(s): CVE-2026-6475
* SECURITY UPDATE: Path traversal in pg_rewind: file, directory and symlink paths received from the source server over libpq were acted on without validation, so a rogue origin could make pg_rewind write, truncate or unlink files outside the target data directory - debian/patches/CVE-2026-6475.patch: Add path_is_safe_for_extraction() in src/port/path.c, which canonicalises a path and requires it to stay relative and below the current directory, and gate every pg_rewind target file/dir/symlink operation on it with pg_fatal() (upstream commit 498829dca4; the pg_basebackup astreamer half of that commit is v15+ and absent from 9.6) - CVE-2026-6475: path traversal in pg_rewind target file operations via unvalidated paths supplied by the source server
