Dpkg::Source::Patch: Outright reject C-style filenames in patches

Because patch only started recognizing C-style filenames in diffs
in version 2.7, it's not safe to assume one behaviour or the other,
as the system might or might not have a recent enough version, or
a GNU patch program at all. There's also no reason we should be
supporting this kind of strange encoded filenames in patches, when
we have not done so up to now.

Let's just ban these types of diffs and be done with it.

Fixes: CVE-2014-0471, CVE-2014-3127
Closes: #746306

[drop the text for debian/changelog,because it's not suitable

+dpkg: Security Advisory - CVE-2014-3127
+
+commit a12eb58959d0a10584a428f4a3103a49204c410f upstream
+
+dpkg 1.15.9 on Debian squeeze introduces support for the "C-style
+encoded filenames" feature without recognizing that the squeeze patch
+program lacks this feature, which triggers an interaction error that
+allows remote attackers to conduct directory traversal attacks and
+modify files outside of the intended directories via a crafted source
+package.
+
+NOTE: this can be considered a release engineering problem in the
+effort to fix CVE-2014-0471.
