   fixes (CVEs)

   a dependency)
   - Adjustments required for running confined webapps using the camera &
   microphone policy-groups

*3. Misc*

   - media-hub ABI break creating maintenance issues with the oxide / MH
   integration; this integration should be deprecated more quickly to avoid
   further problems
   - should also consider how to shield oxide from further issues when we
   call the MH arbitration API
