[Nut-upsdev] [Nut-upsuser] NUT testing for v2.8.3 (hopefully imminent)

[Jim Klimov]

And now v2.8.3-rc3 is out, fixing some hiccups about builds on newer
toolchain with Debian 13 (and more detailed dependencies it brings), and a
non-system replica of a NUT-specific udev-settle service (since the one in
newer distros blessed with systemd complains it is obsoleted, and may delay
boot-ups if there is plugged hardware to wait for that NUT dependencies
elicited). A few driver/feature fixes caught up too.
