Please unblock package nftables

[ Reason ]
The release of nftables currently in testing, 1.1.2, introduces a regression.
Upstream put out a new release, 1.1.3, shortly afterwards to fix this bug and
two others.  We would like to get these fixes into Trixie.

See also https://bugs.debian.org/1107417

[ Impact ]
Two existing bugs will remain unfixed and a new one will be introduced.

[ Tests ]
Two of the three fixes are covered by the upstream test-suites.

[ Risks ]
The only change to the packaging is the update to d/changelog.  The 1.1.3
upstream release itself only contains these three bug-fixes:

  $ git log --oneline v1.1.2..v1.1.3
  4431c70ca96c (tag: v1.1.3) build: Bump version to 1.1.3
  2fbade3cd990 netlink: bogus concatenated set ranges with netlink message 
overrun
  2c41c82296c7 evalute: make vlan pcp updates work
  63ed8af82ba0 Revert "intervals: do not merge intervals with different timeout"

so the risks should be minimal.

[ Checklist ]
  [x] all changes are documented in the d/changelog
  [x] I reviewed all changes and I approve them
  [x] attach debdiff against the package in testing

[ Other info ]
When the upstream source tar-ball for 1.1.2 was prepared, a number of output
files generated by running the test-suites were inadvertently included.  The
1.1.3 tar-ball does not contains this cruft.  The upshot is that while the
source-code changes are limited, there is a lot of noise in the debdiff because
of the removal of the junk files.
