forum-mso-en-15521.docx
The most visible problem in this document is that it becomes two pages in MS
Word after it is round-tripped by LO. This is caused by excess spacing being
added to the footnotes.
This started in 24.2.6 after commit 74c29345a7c179b048c157582a1145e381616e5c

Steps to reproduce:
1.) open forum-mso-en-15521.docx in MS Word.
-notice that the first two footnotes have 0 below spacing - so they are close
together.
2.) round-trip the file using LO.
3.) open the round-tripped file in MS Word.
-notice that the first two footnotes has 12pt below spacing - so they are far
apart.
