Title:
  rustc 1.70 and cargo 0.71 required by firefox 120

Status in cargo package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in rustc package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Firefox 120+ requires rustc 1.70 and cargo 0.71 to build¹².

  The beta phase for Firefox 120.0 begins on 2023-10-23 and release
  candidates will be available from 2023-11-13.

  Eventually Thunderbird will need an updated rust toolchain as well.

  We will need these in all supported releases of Ubuntu: focal, jammy,
  lunar.

  Rust toolchain upgrades are usually relatively safe from a FTBFS point
  of view, since new releases are subjected to a crater run, crater
  being a tool that compiles the entirety of the crates.io packages.
