New bugfix release 24.0.9

[Timo Aaltonen]

[Impact]

This is the last point-release of the 24.0.x-series, we should SRU it to noble so latest bugfixes would get there in time for 24.04.1, and possibly to jammy for 22.04.5 image.

[Test case]

Install the updates, test desktop use and some basic games etc on at least AMD and Intel hw.

[Where things could go wrong]

It's possible that some apps (like games) might regress on some hw, but there should not be a big risk for more wider bugs appearing in this update, since upstream and vendor (Intel) CI machinery have tested these.
