CVE-2017-14929,poppler: Mark as ignored for Wheezy

The vulnerability (infinite loop) is not reproducible with the provided POC in
Wheezy. The code looks similar although it differs in function names (drawform
-> doform1) and function parameters. The fix requires an API change. It is not
clear to me whether the package in Wheezy is still affected but following
upstream's fix would require a rebuild of all reverse-dependencies. I'm going
to mark this issue as ignored because it is not clear if the fix is needed and
the current solution is probably too intrusive to backport.
