apt (2.0.11) focal; urgency=medium

  * Fix buffer overflow, stack overflow, exponential complexity in
    apt-ftparchive Contents generation (LP: #2083697)
    - ftparchive: Mystrdup: Add safety check and bump buffer size
    - ftparchive: contents: Avoid exponential complexity and overflows
    - test framework: Improve valgrind support
    - test: Check that apt-ftparchive handles deep paths
    - increase valgrind cleanliness to make the tests pass:
      - pkgcachegen: Use placement new to construct header
      - acquire: Disable gcc optimization of strcmp() reading too far into
        struct dirent's d_name buffer.
