From: Peter Marko <peter.marko@siemens.com>

Backport https://github.com/libexpat/libexpat/pull/973
Patch created by:
git diff 2fc36833334340ff7ddca374d86daa8744c1dfa3..99529768b4a722f46c69b04b874c1d45b3eb819c

Additional backport (containing changes in tests only) was needed to
apply it cleanly.

Additional backport https://github.com/libexpat/libexpat/pull/989
which has fixed regression of the first fix.

++ #893 #??? CVE-2024-8176 -- Fix crash from chaining a large number
++ of entities caused by stack overflow by resolving use of
++ recursion, for all three uses of entities:
++ - general entities in character data ("<e>&g1;</e>")
++ - general entities in attribute values ("<e k1='&g1;'/>")
++ - parameter entities ("%p1;")
++ Known impact is (reliable and easy) denial of service:
