Title:
  Merge base-files from Debian Unstable for questing

Status in base-files package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Scheduled-For: ubuntu-25.06
  Ubuntu: 13.7ubuntu1
  Debian Unstable: 13.8

  A new release of base-files is available for merging from Debian
  Unstable.

  If it turns out this needs a sync rather than a merge, please change
  the tag 'dcr-merge' to 'dcr-sync', and (optionally) update the title
  as desired.

  If this merge pulls in a new upstream version, also consider adding an
  entry to the questing Release Notes:
  https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/questing-quokka-release-notes/

  ### New Debian Changes ###

  base-files (13.8) unstable; urgency=medium

    * Changes for trixie as stable:
    - Use 13 as version in /etc/issue and /etc/issue.net.
    - Use 13.0 as version in /etc/debian_version.
    - Update PRETTY_NAME in os-release, now 13 (trixie).
    - Add VERSION_ID and VERSION.
    - Add DEBIAN_VERSION_FULL with the same contents as /etc/debian_version.
      This is only expected to exist on stable releases. Closes: #931197.
      Note that this does not change the fundamental fact that "all point
      releases of trixie are Debian 13". This is just a convenience for
      tools like ansible who already parse both debian_version and os-release
      so that in the long term they can parse os-release only.
    - Update README (trixie -> forky and use 13.x for example version).
    * Refresh some licenses from ftp.gnu.org. Closes: #1103289.
    * Set Rules-Requires-Root to no.
    * Drop obsolete debian/2775-dirs.
    * Add Vcs-Git and Vcs-Browser fields.
