textproc/libxml2: update to 2.15.1
Changelog: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/libxml2/-/blob/2.15/NEWS
Notably, all documentation generation requires a circular dependency
on textproc/libxslt. While the API documentation, in HTML, lives
on the upstream site [0], the man pages are now pre-rendered manually.
Also includes an upstream commit addressing unsafe pointer usage
in XPath, leading to security bugs in consumers like libxslt
(CVE-2025-10911). [1]
Mark the -python child port DEPRECATED without expiration date since
upstream has not provided a firm one yet, particularly the release
schedule for the next major version 2.16.
