Log:
CVE-2017-5836,libplist: Mark as no-dsa in Wheezy

The pointers are not incorrectly freed because the code is different in Wheezy.
Instead of parse_dict_node plist_from_bin would be affected. We could disallow
non-string key nodes but they are officially allowed though. I think we should not
break this assumption for Wheezy.
