The bump of python-scrapy adds support to mitigate CVE-2025-6176. But
to be effective the brotli dependency needs to be bumped to the
version which adds support for limiting output size in Python
streaming decompression (Cf #1122212).

For the record, there is a runtime check that stops Scrapy from using older brotli (it checks for `brotli.Decompressor.can_accept_more_data` existing), which indeed happens with the sid version. So adding a version restriction to the Recommends makes sense, but it's not a security-related issue to not have it.
