Revert "Removed sendmail from dla-needed since there is no CVE marked as need for a fix for buster."

This reverts commit f95d3ce82bb4c126f1895a4fc26d26e068cd8ccb.

Rationale:
- SMTP Smuggling (CVE-2023-51765) had significant impact
- SMTP Smuggling was fixed in e.g. Postfix and Exim
- Sendmail is sponsored for LTS
- Preliminary LTS work was done
- CVE-2023-51765 is still not triaged for sendmail/buster

Consequently it's hard to explain why we would not attempt to fix it.

In this case, I believe LTS should make an effort to fix sendmail for all dists,
rather than follow secteam's initial triage.
