It means this, based on the package changelog:
gnome-settings-daemon (3.35.91-1) experimental; urgency=medium
[ Sebastien Bacher ]
* New upstream release:
- Add capability to disable USB while the lockscreen is on
(based on USBGuard)
* debian/control.in:
- Suggests usbguard for the new lockscreen protection, the feature
didn't get much testing yet and usbguard could create problems so
don't bring it in by default yet
I.e. what it should do is to deny any usb devices from configuring while
you have a lockscreen on. The changelog message also shows that
currently one have to install Suggests type of dependency to get this
feature.
