Please unblock package linbox

[ Reason ]
linbox is scheduled to be removed from testing on June 15 due to RC bug 
#987921.  The package FTBFS on i386 when compiling with gcc 10 due to an 
ambiguous overload error.  A fix has been proposed upstream 
(https://github.com/linbox-team/linbox/pull/274) and a patch has been written 
for the Debian package 
(https://salsa.debian.org/science-team/linbox/-/commit/f630fb1).  It should 
arrive in unstable soon, pending review and sponsorship.

[ Impact ]
The change between the version of the package currently in testing and the 
proposed version is minimal (one patch affecting two lines of code) and also 
prevents FTBFS on i386.

[ Tests ]
The affected code is covered in test-qlub from the upstream test suite, which 
is run during build.

[ Risks ]
Minimal risk -- patch is trivial.

[ Checklist ]
  [x] all changes are documented in the d/changelog
  [x] I reviewed all changes and I approve them
  [x] attach debdiff against the package in testing

[ Other info ]
Thank you!
