use-gcc-15.patch cgcc: use gcc-15 explicitly
By default sparse uses include files from the compiler it is compiled with. To
prevent that these include files are removed the sparse package has an explicit
dependency on gcc-15 (i.e. the current default gcc version) in Debian and is
patched to make use of (only) this version.
