d/patches: fix the test failures when the build inherits SUDO_UID
reproducible-builds.org fails to build 6.0.6-1 from source on amd64 and
arm64. pbuilder is started with sudo and passes SUDO_UID and SUDO_USER
of the calling user into the build: the tests then took the build user
for root, and get_real_uid() returned the calling user, so 11 tests
failed. Without SUDO_UID, get_real_uid() falls back to os.getlogin(),
the login uid of the session, so a build started from a desktop session
as another user failed the same way.
Add the two commits of upstream PR #2518: have_root() in the tests
checks the uid, and without root get_real_uid() and get_real_username()
return the user of the process. As root nothing changes. The hunk for
test_enumerate_proc_fs_comm_with_spaces is left out, since that test is
not in 6.0.6.
Built in a sid chroot as a different user, with and without SUDO_UID:
593 tests pass with each Python version. A second build with nocheck and
the other variations of reproducible-builds.org gives the same .deb.
autopkgtest passes as root and with --user.
