testing migrations

excuses:
- Migration status for cppcheck (2.19.0-3 to 2.20.0-1): BLOCKED: Rejected/violates migration policy/introduces a regression
- Issues preventing migration:
- ∙ ∙ Autopkgtest for cppcheck/2.20.0-1: amd64: Regression ♻ (reference ♻), arm64: Regression ♻ (reference ♻), i386: Reference test triggered, but real test failed already ♻, ppc64el: No tests, superficial or marked flaky ♻, s390x: Test triggered
- ∙ ∙ Missing build on riscv64
- ∙ ∙ Autopkgtest deferred on riscv64: missing arch:riscv64 build
- ∙ ∙ Lintian check waiting for test results on riscv64 - info
- ∙ ∙ Too young, only 1 of 5 days old
- Additional info (not blocking):
- ∙ ∙ Piuparts tested OK - https://piuparts.debian.org/sid/source/c/cppcheck.html
- ∙ ∙ Reproducibility regression on amd64: cppcheck
- ∙ ∙ Reproduced on arm64
- ∙ ∙ Reproduced on armhf
- ∙ ∙ Reproducibility regression on i386: cppcheck, cppcheck-gui
- ∙ ∙ Reproducibility regression on ppc64el: cppcheck, cppcheck-gui
- Not considered
