testing migrations

excuses:
- Migration status for mit-scheme (12.1-4 to 12.1-5): Waiting for test results or another package, or too young (no action required now - check later)
- Issues preventing migration:
- ∙ ∙ Too young, only 3 of 5 days old
- Additional info (not blocking):
- ∙ ∙ Updating mit-scheme will fix bugs in testing: #1145694
- ∙ ∙ Piuparts tested OK - https://piuparts.debian.org/sid/source/m/mit-scheme.html
- ∙ ∙ Not reproduced on amd64 (not a regression): mit-scheme, mit-scheme-dbg
- ∙ ∙ Reproduced on arm64 - info
- ∙ ∙ Reproduced on armhf - info
- ∙ ∙ Reproduced on i386 - info
- Not considered
