Title:
  [FFE] Update gjs to 1.78.0 and switch mozjs102 to mozjs115

Status in gjs package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Explanation of FeatureFreeze exception
  =======================================
  gjs 1.78.0 is part of GNOME 45. gjs 1.78 switches from mozjs102 to mozjs115.

  mozjs is the SpiderMonkey JavaScript engine from Firefox (ESR). The
  Firefox 102 ESR branch is no longer supported by Mozilla later this
  month; 115 is the new Firefox ESR series. We did not finish packaging
  mozjs115 before Mantic Feature Freeze.

  This feature freeze request includes promoting mozjs115 from universe
  to main and demoting mozjs102 to universe. The only other user of
  mozjs* in Mantic is cjs, Cinnamon's fork of gjs. Cinnamon will not be
  ready to switch to mozjs115 in time for Ubuntu 23.10.

  As a minor note, we will also need to add mozjs115 to the list of
  packages to build on i386.

  Upstream changes
