Description
I am trying to build Swift 5.9 on Amazon Linux 2023
Challenge: the file https://github.com/apple/swift-installer-scripts/blob/main/platforms/Linux/RPM/Shared/metadata/global.inc has only dependencies for Swift 5.7.x (both on main branch and release/5.9 branch)
It lacks at least swift-asn1 and swift-certificates but others as well as my builds fail.
Can someone provide an updated globals.inc up-to-date with correct dependencies for Swift 5.9 ?

Research direction
Inspect platforms/Linux/RPM/Shared/metadata/global.inc on the main and release/5.9 branches, then try the Swift 5.9 build on Amazon Linux 2023. Verify the dependency list, including swift-asn1 and swift-certificates, against the build failures. Done means globals.inc contains the correct Swift 5.9 dependencies and the build proceeds successfully.
