The glibc-testsuite recipe fails during do_create_spdx with:

  ERROR: glibc-testsuite-2.39+git-r1 do_create_spdx: Recipe glibc-testsuite
  is trying to create package sln which was already written by recipe glibc.
  This will cause corruption, please resolve this and only provide the
  package from one recipe or the other or only build one of the recipes.

This happens because glibc-testsuite includes glibc_2.39.bb via 'require'
to reuse its source and build configuration for running 'make check'. As a
result, it inherits all of glibc's PACKAGES definitions (including sln).
While the recipe already inherits 'nopackages' to suppress packaging, the
nopackages class does not disable SPDX tasks. The do_create_spdx task then
attempts to generate SPDX data for packages like 'sln', conflicting with
the real glibc recipe that owns that package.

This issue was exposed by the SPDX 3.0 backport (commit 9c9b954504,
Nov 2025) which introduced stricter package-level SPDX generation.

Fix this by adding 'inherit nospdx'. glibc-testsuite does not run on
target or factor into the build supply chain, since its purpose is to
run tests in QEMU at build time.

(cherry picked from commit 32801348ca231978498612f3ebee121ca27459c1)
