testing migrations

excuses:
- Migration status for libwww-mechanize-chrome-perl (- to 0.75-1): BLOCKED: Rejected/violates migration policy/introduces a regression

- ∙ ∙ Autopkgtest for libwww-mechanize-chrome-perl/0.75-1: amd64: Pass, arm64: Pass, i386: Failed ♻, ppc64el: Failed ♻
- ∙ ∙ Not built on buildd: arch all binaries uploaded by andrew@etc.gen.nz, a new source-only upload is needed to allow migration
- Additional info (not blocking):
- ∙ ∙ Piuparts tested OK - https://piuparts.debian.org/sid/source/libw/libwww-mechanize-chrome-perl.html
- ∙ ∙ Autopkgtest skipped on riscv64: not installable (which is allowed)
- ∙ ∙ Autopkgtest skipped on s390x: not installable (which is allowed)
