dpkg 1.22.5ubuntu2 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

dpkg (1.22.5ubuntu2) noble; urgency=low

  * Merge from Debian unstable. Remaining changes:
    - Change native source version/format mismatch errors into warnings
      until the dust settles on Debian bug 737634 about override options.
    - Add DPKG_UNTRANSLATED_MESSAGES environment check so that higher-level
      tools can get untranslated dpkg terminal log messages while at the
      same time having translated debconf prompts.
    - Map unqualified package names of multiarch-same packages to the native
      arch instead of throwing an error, so that we don't break on upgrade
      when there are unqualified names stored in the dpkg trigger database.
    - Apply a workaround from mvo to consider ^rc packages as multiarch,
      during the dpkg consistency checks. (see LP: 1015567 and 1057367).
    - dpkg-gencontrol: Fix Package-Type override handling for ddeb support.
    - scripts/Dpkg/Vendor/Ubuntu.pm, scripts/dpkg-buildpackage.pl: set
      'nocheck' in build options by default on Ubuntu/riscv64.  Overridable
      in debian/rules with
      'DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS := $(filter-out nocheck,$(DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS))'.
    - dpkg-dev: Depend on lto-disabled-list.
    - dpkg-buildflags: Read package source names from lto-disabled-list,
      to build without lto optimizations. When adding a source package to the
      list, please also file a launchpad issue and tag it with 'lto'.
    - scripts/Dpkg/Vendor/Ubuntu.pm: set 'noudeb' build profile by
      default. Override this by exporting DEB_BUILD_PROFILE='!noudeb' which
      will be stripped, and thus building with udebs.
    - build: Switch default dpkg-deb compression from xz to zstd.
      Keep compressing dpkg.deb with xz to help bootstrapping on non-Ubuntu
      systems.
    - set default zstd compression level to 19
    - scripts/Dpkg/Vendor/Debian.pm: Always include "-fdebug-prefix-map"
      to build flags.  Map path to "/usr/src/PKGNAME-PKGVER" instead of
      ".", honouring the DWARF standard which prohibits relative paths
      in DW_AT_comp_dir.
    - scripts/{mk/buildflags.mk,t.mk}: Add support for DEB_BUILD_DEBUGPATH.
    - man/dpkg-buildflags.pod: Document new behaviour of "fdebugmap" and
      new DEB_BUILD_DEBUGPATH variable.
    - Disable -fstack-clash-protection on armhf since it causes crashes
    - dpkg-buildflags: Add a new feature "framepointer" in the "qa" area.
    - Turn on the use of frame pointers by default on 64bit architectures.
    - Update _FORTIFY_SOURCE documentation.
    - Update Dpkg_BuildFlags test case.
    - Fix debian/rules duplicate invocations of dh_builddeb
    - lib/dpkg/compress.c: clean up override of the default zstd compression
      level
    - dpkg-buildflags: Explicitly turn off hardening flags when requested.
    - Restore manpage delta, incorrectly dropped in 1.22.4ubuntu1, around
      FORTIFY_LEVEL, dpkg-buildflags fixdebugpath, and the zstd default
      compression level.
