package/util-linux: security bump to 2.41.4

Security fixes:

CVE-2026-27456 - mount(8) TOCTOU symlink attack via loop device.
The SUID mount follows symlinks when resolving loop backing file paths. On systems where non-root users are permitted to mount loop devices (via 'user' option in fstab), this allows access to arbitrary files.

CWE-190 - Integer overflow in libblkid parse_dos_extended().
A crafted MBR disk image can cause uint32_t wraparound in EBR chain processing, causing reported partitions to not match the on-disk layout. Tools like udisks may then register a partition at logical sector 0.
