/// Regression test for PR #2345: Ensures that when decompressing the base object in a delta chain,
/// the output buffer is properly bounded to prevent the decompressor from overshooting and
/// corrupting delta instruction data that follows in the buffer.
///
/// ## Background
/// When resolving delta chains, the code allocates a buffer structured as:
/// `[first_buffer][second_buffer][delta_instructions]`
/// The fix in PR #2345 bounds the output buffer passed to `decompress_entry_from_data_offset`
/// to only `[first_buffer][second_buffer]` (i.e., `out_size - total_delta_data_size`), preventing
/// the decompressor from writing beyond this boundary and corrupting the delta instructions.
///
/// ## About this test
/// This test uses a specially crafted pack file (pack-regression-*.pack) with a large base
/// object (52KB) and delta chains to exercise the buffer bounding code path. While this test
/// currently does not fail when the fix is removed (because triggering the actual zlib-rs
/// overshooting behavior requires very specific compression/decompression conditions found in
/// repositories like chromium), it:
///
/// 1. **Exercises the correct code path**: Tests the delta resolution logic where the buffer
/// bounding fix is applied
/// 2. **Documents the fix**: Serves as in-code documentation of PR #2345 and why buffer bounding
/// is necessary
/// 3. **Provides infrastructure**: If a reproducing pack file is obtained (e.g., from chromium),
/// it can be easily added here
/// 4. **Validates correctness**: Ensures delta chains decode correctly with the fix in place
///
/// The actual bug manifests when zlib-rs (or potentially other decompressors) write slightly
/// beyond the decompressed size when given an unbounded buffer, corrupting the delta
/// instructions that follow in memory. This is highly dependent on the specific compression
/// ratios and internal zlib-rs behavior.
