Thanks!

$ guix show jbig2dec | grep synopsis
synopsis: Decoder of the JBIG2 image compression format 

It seems like it would be a run-time dependency, not just something used
to build ghostscript. In that case it would be an 'input', not a
'native-input'. What do you think?

Also, the idiomatic commit message would be like this:

------
gnu: ghostscript: Update to 9.53.3.

* gnu/packages/ghostscript.scm (ghostscript): Update to 9.53.3.
[source]: Remove obsolete patch 'ghostscript-CVE-2020-15900.patch'.
[native-inputs]: Add jbig2dec.
* gnu/packages/patches/ghostscript-CVE-2020-15900.patch: Delete file.
* gnu/local.mk (dist_patch_DATA): Remove it.
------
