libdisplay-info1 was a new package, while libass9 was installed, but
from a different vendor, which is why it wasn't upgraded. Upstream added
additional functionality to that package but did not increment the
SOname, hence libass9 appeared to be up2date enough when you installed
kodi-21.0.

No, this is only because of the too old libass9 in Leap 15.5 *and* 15.6
(as usual), why we needed to link the package from openSUSE:Factory to
PMBS Multimedia/A_15.x-libass - but the real reason is, Upstream should
have increased the SOname/number - unfortunately, they didn't.

Your solution would be

  sudo zypper up ----allow-vendor-change --from "Your-PMBS-Multimedia.repo" libass9
