[ Reason ]
CVE-2025-6199

[ Impact ]
Fixes a local information disclosure vulnerability when parsing malformed
GIF files.

[ Tests ]
Automated tests (build-time test and autopkgtest) still pass, including
parsing of valid and invalid GIF files.

`eog ~/Pictures` successfully decodes valid JPEG and PNG images.

`eog /usr/libexec/installed-tests/SDL3_image` successfully decodes
valid images of several types including GIF.

There is no specific test coverage for CVE-2025-6199. It was found by
code inspection and I am not aware of a proof-of-concept exploit.

[ Risks ]
Key package, but the change is very narrowly targeted.

[ Checklist ]
  [x] all changes are documented in the d/changelog
  [x] I reviewed all changes and I approve them
  [x] attach debdiff against the package in testing

[ Other info ]
debian/.gitignore was already present in the source tree, but appears in
the debdiff because the previous uploader built with dpkg-buildpackage
options that exclude it (most likely git-buildpackage's default,
debuild -i -I), whereas I built with options that preserve the entire
source tree (-I.git) and uploaded with dgit. Its addition is harmless.
