The security field should not translate package names to upper case
because the security tracker expects all package names in lower case.
The translation to upper case should only happen for CVEs/DSAs/DLA.

   $ grep -iC2 upper /usr/share/webext/debian-buttons/icedeb.js
       case 'security':
         clip = clip.replace(' ', '-');
         clip = clip.toUpperCase();
         url = 'https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/' + clip;
         break;
