vim CVE-2021-4187



Hello,

I have attempted to backport upstream's fix for this CVE in vim in
d/patches/CVE-2021-4137.patch on the debian/bullseye branch under
lts-team on salsa.

My backporting is not correct, and causes a segfault when the tests run.

After studying it again, I have come to the conclusion that this is too
difficult to backport without becoming a vimscript compilation expert.
Therefore, considering the CVE severity, we should mark this one as
ignored.  But I could be wrong -- maybe it is obvious what is wrong with
my backport to someone else's eyes.

Therefore, could someone take a look at my work, and let me know if they
can see the problem, please?

Thanks.
