Please sync rkhunter 1.4.6-2 (universe) from Debian unstable (main)

[Impact]

* rkhunter on Ubuntu 18.04 produces messages like the following during
its "shared memory segments" test (bug 1775939):

/usr/bin/rkhunter: 14795: [: /usr/lib/firefox/firefox: unexpected
operator

* The script exits with an error as soon as it hits that broken check.

[Test Case]

 * Run `sudo rkhunter -c --enable ipc_shared_mem` and make sure the
check completes and doesn't end prematurely.

 * Note that this is not a perfect test because the failure only occurs
when a suspicious segment is found. I don't know how to trigger that
manually.

[Regression Potential]

* Very low. This is a single-byte bashism fix.

* That package has been in Debian for more than 5 months without
problems.

[Other Info]
