Control: affects -1 + src:dovecot

Since we're in a transition freeze, I'd like to request an exception to
allow src:dovecot 2.4 to enter trixie.  src:dovecot builds dovecot-dev,
which has two reverse build-deps, so requires a small transition.

The two potentially controversial issues with this transition are:

1. Reverse build-dep dovecot-antispam does not support version 2.4.  Its git
repository has seen no upstream activity since 2017 and the package has seen
no maintainer activity since 2018, so my suggestion is that we remove this
package from trixie altogether.

2. Dovecot 2.4 does not build on 32-bit architectures.  My intent was to
drop i386 anyway, but I did put out a call for help on [email protected]
in case anybody wants to fix the issues as they impact 32-bit arm*
architectures.  Receiving no responses thus far, I'm inclined to drop
support for these architectures from the package.

Additionally, upstream is likely to publish a bugfix release (2.4.1) in the
near future.  Given the nature of this release, getting into trixie would
also be ideal.  I'd consider that a second transition for this package, as
we're currently working with 2.4.0, but I do want to mention it.

Thanks
noah

Scheduled and built.


And dovecot / dovecot-fts-xapian migrated.
