I now took the same steps as above, just adding hicolor-icon-theme in
3a/3b/6a/6b:
3a/6a) sed -i -e 's/interest /interest-noawait /' /var/lib/dpkg/info/{desktop-file-utils,shared-mime-info,hicolor-icon-theme}.triggers
3b/6b) sed -i -e 's;desktop-file-utils;desktop-file-utils/noawait;' -e 's;shared-mime-info;shared-mime-info/noawait;' -e 's;hicolor-icon-theme;hicolor-icon-theme/noawait;' /var/lib/dpkg/triggers/File
Result: The dist-upgrade finishes successfully.

Interesting idea. Let's try (i.e. the same steps, but leaving out 3a
and 3b):
Result: Works as well.
But. But.
But this is with the "fixed" ca-certificates-java (20170531+nmu1) so
we wouldn't see the failure in the first place. *sigh*
Ok, so let's do this again, this time with a local repo added which
contains ca-certificates-java 20170531+nmu2 (just 20170531 but with a
higher version). (Side note: ca-certificates-java gets already
updated in 6, i.e. in "upgrade", before the "dist-upgrade".)
Option 1, with 3a/b: The dist-upgrade fails with the well-known
error:
