[SRU] backport dotnet7 7.0.103 to kinetic

[Dominik Viererbe]

[Impact]

* This correspond to an upstream microrelease (Microsoft Patch Tuesday microrelease). See : https://devblogs.microsoft.com/dotnet/february-2023-updates/

* It is beneficial for our users to have access to the latest .NET stack.

* dotnet 7.0.103 carries low impact security fixes

[Test Case]

 * The package should build successfully in kinetic-proposed.

 * The packages should be installable on kinetic.

 * Autopackage tests should pass.

 * The usual manual tests that have been seen in the previous microreleases [1] [2] (see Test Case section there).

[Regression Potential]

 * Upstream tests are usually satisfactory, but there is always a risk of something breaking.

 * If the solution would not be well implemented, the dotnet-host binary will be unable to recognize the SDKs installed and all the other shared files (templates, packs, etc...).

[Other]

 * Although the dotnet SDK 7.0.103 is part of the dotnet 7.0.3 release we refer to the release as 6.0.103, because source build only supports the 7.0.1xx feature band. (See https://github.com/dotnet/source-build#support)

Hello Dominik, or anyone else affected,

Accepted dotnet7 into kinetic-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dotnet7/7.0.103-0ubuntu1~22.10.1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-kinetic to verification-done-kinetic. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed-kinetic. In either case, without details of your testing we will not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s) fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in -proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

I did some basic dogfooding testing with dotnet 7.0.103:
 - on amd64 with kinetic
 - on arm64 with kinetic

Behaved as expected.

Also worked with the dotnet 6.0.114 SRU (LP: #2009852)
