Please unblock package ufw

It seems that adduser 3.133 has caused problems for a lot of packages in sid,
including ufw. See:

https://piuparts.debian.org/sid/fail/adduser_3.133.log
https://piuparts.debian.org/sid/fail/
https://piuparts.debian.org/sid/fail/ufw_0.36.2-1.log
https://piuparts.debian.org/sid/fail/...

In the case of ufw, it ships a logrotate file and logrotate gets installed,
which pulls in adduser, but adduser can't be removed and piuparts fails:

0m18.6s DEBUG: Starting command: ['chroot', '/srv/piuparts.debian.org/tmp/tmpwv4fmpa7', 'apt-get', 'install', '-y', 'logrotate']

  dpkg: error processing package adduser (--purge):
   this is a protected package; it should not be removed
...

As mentioned, there seem to be several packages in this state. ufw has shipped
a logrotate file for years and this isn't new to ufw 0.36.2-1. 

[ Reason ]
ufw did not cause adduser to be unremovable, and adduser being unremovable
should not affect ufw's migration.

[ Impact ]
Bug fixes and translations will not be available in bookworm (I am upstream ufw
and I cut 0.36.2 specifically for bookworm users).

[ Tests ]
Build tests (unit and functional) and autopkgtests pass.

[ Risks ]
Leaf package.

[ 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
