caused by a merge conflict in a security patch

@jnuche and I talked about it. The issue is due to security patches for T297754 which got merged on April 1st, we will remove them after lunch and cleanup the /srv/mediawiki-staging/php-1.39.0-wmf.6 area.

Please do not act since we need @jnuche to be familiar with that process and he will handle it :]

A follow up action is find out why stage-train or scap apply-patches --train 1.39.0-wmf.6 fail to notice the conflict.

That is a bug in stage-train which was not checking the exit code of the commands until https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/c/mediawiki/tools/release/+/773328

Jaime used a previous version of the script which ignores the command status and thus the script kept processing despite the patches failing to apply.

Fixed merge conflicts, reapplied security patches and promoted to group0 again. The error is now gone from the logs.

Also, thanks @Majavah and @hashar :)
