Public bug reported:

libadwaita latest upstream stable version is not included in Ubuntu
questing beta, since the RC update required some patch updates that were
not ready and we wanted to wait for the upstream final version being
released, that happened just few days ago.

libadwaita 1.8.0 is a critical component of GNOME 49, and while all the
applications we care about only require 1.8.0~beta at the date, it's not
wise to ship what upstream considers a not-yet-stable version in ubuntu
25.10.

The .rc and final versions only contain main bug fixes: 
 - https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/libadwaita/blob/1.8.0/NEWS
 - No new symbol is added to the library

The details of the changes are in
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/libadwaita/-/compare/1.8.beta...1.8.0?from_project_id=14079?format=patch

Not being updated with upstream also implies that future potential SRUs
will be harder to do for this cycle.
