drochner e3cf6115d8 Update sysutils/testdisk to testdisk-6.14.
from Leonardo Taccari per PR pkg/48189

Changes:
General Improvements
====================
     * The log file generated by the Windows version (cygwin) reports bad
       sectors in a more readable fashion, example
         ReadFile Data error (cyclic redundancy check).
     * As openssl isn't used, don't link with this cryptographic library
       (Debian tries to avoid mixing GPL code and openssl)

TestDisk
========
Improvements
------------
     * testdisk /list now displays the disk model, serial number, firmware
       version and hpa or dco presence if detected
     * Recover WBFS (Wii Backup File System) partition
     * Make FAT RebuildBS works when there is a single FAT table
     * Interface: Display the partition table type if autodetected
     * Interface: modified warning about mismatching geometry between FAT
       or NTFS boot sector and HD geometry information (Debian #651756)
     * Interface: Remove "Allow partial last cylinder" option

Bug fixes
---------
     * Fix crc in EFI backup GPT
     * Rewrote how TestDisk aligns partition on cylinder or 1MB boundary.
       It avoids to create partition entry where the partition ends after
       the end of the disk.

PhotoRec
========
Improvements
------------
     * Improve Olympus .orf recovery
     * Improve WP Mac/WP5/WP6 Corel Documents .wpd files recovery
     * Fix thumbs.db recovery, avoid some false positive with .doc
     * Interface: if less than 10 file families are enabled, display the
       results even if zero has been found yet

   New file formats:
     * .aep After Effects
     * .axx AxCrypt
     * .dp Designer, a Photobook Designer Software
     * .lzh archive
     * .mmap MindManager
     * .plt Gerber Graphix Advantage

Disk is powerful free data recovery software! It was primarily designed
to help recover lost partitions and/or make non-booting disks bootable
again when these symptoms are caused by faulty software, certain types of
viruses or human error (such as accidentally deleting a Partition Table).
Partition table recovery using TestDisk is really easy.
TestDisk can
* Fix partition table, recover deleted partition
* Recover FAT32 boot sector from its backup
* Rebuild FAT12/FAT16/FAT32 boot sector
* Fix FAT tables
* Rebuild NTFS boot sector
* Recover NTFS boot sector from its backup
* Fix MFT using MFT mirror
* Locate ext2/ext3/ext4 Backup SuperBlock
* Undelete files from FAT, exFAT, NTFS and ext2 filesystem
* Copy files from deleted FAT, exFAT, NTFS and ext2/ext3/ext4 partitions.
