Then ppsspp should rather go into experimental than unstable.

libpng16 will be in testing once the libpng16 transition in unstable
has been finished or has reached an acceptable state without breaking
everything. However, since this transition hasn't even been
announced yet, I can't really say when this is going to happen.
You should ask the release team or the libpng maintainer(s) for a
date.

Or just use experimental. I wouldn't really rush it. If you are
pushing it now, you are risking additional work and problems with the
package. Once the transition starts, we will just upload the package
to unstable which will be accepted instantly since it has already been
accepted into experimental by then.

Then you should add lintian overrides for these. But you should check
the copyright file in case it's not 100% compliant to the Debian
copyright file format which might have triggered the lintian warning.
