patches/preserve-speech-dispatcher-group.patch: Backport upstream fix
Add upstream commit 1b46b2d4b2ad ("Keep the speech-dispatcher group
when dropping privileges") as a quilt patch, with a DEP-3 header, and
an item in the 6.9.1+repack-4 changelog entry.
BRLTTY now keeps the speech-dispatcher group when it drops its root
privileges, so that its Speech Dispatcher driver can connect to a
daemon whose socket is only accessible to that group.

patches/fix-linux-screen-driver.patch: Backport upstream fix
Add upstream commit 048dd5963720 ("Linux screen driver: Improve the
reading of the screen when it isn't in UTF mode.") as a quilt patch,
with a DEP-3 header, and a changelog entry for 6.9.1+repack-4.
When reading the unicode device returns no data with errno set to
ENODATA, refreshUnicodeCache returns success instead of logging an
unexpected size and failing.
