crash 8.0.3+ds1-3ubuntu1 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

crash (8.0.3+ds1-3ubuntu1) noble; urgency=medium

  * Merge with Debian unstable. Remaining changes: (LP: #2042357)
    - d/t/live: If the "live" autopkgtest fails with a recommendation to
      try /proc/kcore instead of the default, attempt that before
      failing the test. LP 1858958.
    - d/t/live: Fix logic issue in "live" autopkgtest introduced in the
      last upload.
    - d/t/live: Fix test, as if will return 0 when no cases were true.
    - d/t/control: Add linux-libc-dev dependency for the autopkg test.
      This package gets usually broken with kernel upgrades, so let it
      already show in the autopkg test.
    - d/t/control: Run autopkg test with allow-stderr.
  * Drop changes:
    - d/rules: Build without lto. Fails to build gdb on ppc64el. That
      should be fixed, once gdb is updated to a more recent version
      (e.g. 10.x). [This line is already commented out since Mantic.]
  * New changes:
    - d/p/0002-Fix-compilation-error-due-to-new-strlcpy-function.patch:
      Fix FTBFS due to strlcpy() introduced in glibc 2.38.
    - d/p/0003-Support-module-memory-layout-change-on-Linux-6.4.patch:
      Fix fatal 'crash: invalid structure member offset: module_core_size'

crash: kernel debugging utility, allowing gdb like syntax

 The core analysis suite is a self-contained tool that can be used to
 investigate either live systems, or multiple different core dump formats
 including kdump, LKCD, netdump and diskdump.
 .
 o The tool is loosely based on the SVR4 crash command, but has been
    completely integrated with gdb in order to be able to display
    formatted kernel data structures, disassemble source code, etc.
 .
 o The current set of available commands consist of common kernel core
    analysis tools such as a context-specific stack traces, source code
    disassembly, kernel variable displays, memory display, dumps of
    linked-lists, etc. In addition, any gdb command may be entered,
    which in turn will be passed onto the gdb module for execution.
 .
 o There are several commands that delve deeper into specific kernel
    subsystems, which also serve as templates for kernel developers
    to create new commands for analysis of a specific area of interest.
    Adding a new command is a simple affair, and a quick recompile
    adds it to the command menu.
 .
 o The intent is to make the tool independent of Linux version dependencies,
    building in recognition of major kernel code changes so as to adapt to
    new kernel versions, while maintaining backwards compatibility.
