[Bug 1794544] Re: [SRU] 2.56.3

[Steve Langasek]

What testing will be done of the resulting binary packages to guard
against misbuilds not caught by the upstream testing?  Please call this
out explicitly in the bug description. (If the autopkgtests are
sufficient, that's fine, please just call it out.)

      + Bug fixes:
        + /network-monitor/create-in-thread fails in (LXC) containers on glib-2-56
        + GBookmarkFile: nullptr access in current_element
        + GBookmarkFile: heap-buffer-overflow in g_utf8_get_char
        + Backport g_subprocess_communicate() cancellation fixes from !266 to
          glib-2-56 (LP: #1789476)
        + Many uses of G_GNUC_MALLOC are incorrect
