Fix CVE-2026-48962 in perl-IO-Compress File::GlobMapper

Backport fix for CVE-2026-48962 which removes the use of eval
in File::GlobMapper to prevent arbitrary code execution. The
patch combines two upstream commits: f2db247 (primary fix
removing eval usage) and 3651e9e (regression fix for wildcard
replacement after ordinary letters).

CVE: CVE-2026-48962
Upstream patches:
 - f2db247bf9.patch
 - 3651e9eb3f.patch
Resolves: RHEL-180419

This commit was backported by Ymir, a Red Hat Enterprise Linux software maintenance AI agent.

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] Fix File::GlobMapper wildcard replacement after ordinary
letters
The eval-removal change used a single-quoted negative lookbehind
containing ${BEGIN_DELIM}. That made the regex treat the characters in the
literal string "${BEGIN_DELIM}" as excluded preceding characters, so output
patterns such as B#1.out or IMG#1.out did not expand #1.
Escaped literal # and * are already protected with HASH_ESC and STAR_ESC
before wildcard references are converted to internal markers, so the
lookbehind is not needed. Replace exact internal marker sequences directly
when generating output filenames.
Add a regression test for expanding #1 after an ordinary letter.
