I haven’t checked the rest of the changes, but the soname bump won’t work as-is: you really need a bump that results in a different package name, not librecast1. On top of that, since significant soname bumps result in different linkage, this type of change should really be coordinated with upstream; otherwise, dependencies will diverge across distributions. You should also *not* close the testing migration bug, #1115504, in the package changelog. The bug is already closed and will be handled automatically when the package migrates successfully. Given the small number of reverse-dependencies in Debian, you could, instead of bumping the soname, add Breaks relationships to force upgrades along with the library upgrade; something like Breaks: godot3 (<< 3.6+ds-3.1~), godot3-runner (<< 3.6+ds-3.1~), godot3-server (<< 3.6+ds-3.1~), openmw (<< 0.48.01-1.1~), openmw-launcher (<< 0.48.01-1.1~) (untested).
