libselinux fails to build from source for 64bit musl architectures.

selinux_restorecon.c: In function ‘filespec_add’:
selinux_restorecon.c:441:23: error: storage size of ‘sb’ isn’t known
441 | struct stat64 sb;
| ^~
selinux_restorecon.c:455:31: error: implicit declaration of function ‘lstat64’;
did you mean ‘lstat’? [-Wimplicit-function-declaration]
455 | ret = lstat64(fl->file, &sb);
| ^~~~~~~
| lstat
selinux_restorecon.c:441:23: warning: unused variable ‘sb’ [-Wunused-variable]
441 | struct stat64 sb;
| ^~
In order to use lstat64, -D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE must be defined.
debian/rules defines this for 32bit, but it really is always required.
On 64bit, it would be ok to use lstat directly, but the use of the
lstat64 name requires the macro to be set.
Attaching a patch for your convenience.
Helmut

* 3.9 upstream release
* Always use -D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE thanks Helmut Grohne Closes: #1104987
* Don't apply patch x32 becuase it conflicts and an upstream change appears
to fix the problem.
* Delegate Built-Using to dh-sequence-builtusing
Refine pattern in debian/*.install with DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH
use dpkg buildtools.mk Makefile snippet
use dpkg buildopts.mk Makefile snippet
use dpkg buildflags.mk Makefile snippet
replace shell loops with Make loops
remove obsolete dh_makeshlibs override
avoid hardcoded duplications of libdir
thanks Nicolas Boulenguez
