package/python3: add patch for CVE-2025-8194

This fixes the following vulnerability:

- CVE-2025-8194

    There is a defect in the CPython “tarfile” module affecting the
    “TarFile” extraction and entry enumeration APIs. The tar
    implementation would process tar archives with negative offsets
    without error, resulting in an infinite loop and deadlock during the
    parsing of maliciously crafted tar archives.   This vulnerability can
    be mitigated by including the following patch after importing the
    “tarfile” module: 
    https://gist.github.com/sethmlarson/1716ac5b82b73dbcbf23ad2eff8b33e1
