The GNOME team is ready for this transition now. As usual, lots of Shell
extensions are affected by API changes and will need porting or removal,
but as usual, I think removing the affected Shell extensions from testing
is a better answer than waiting for all of them to be fixed: if we allowed
optional addons to prevent GNOME from being updated, then we'd be stuck on
some much older version forever.

I uploaded a version of mozjs91 to experimental that uses the vendored
copy of ICU, and jbicha is going to move that to unstable shortly.
