Regression: Cannot export model with bilinear UpSampling2D and dynamic inputs

[pwuertz]

Since Keras3 (tested with v3.3.3), UpSampling2D(interpolation="bilinear") with dynamic input sizes causes model exports to fail. For example,

import keras as k

x_in = k.layers.Input(shape=[None, None, 1], name="input")
x_out = k.layers.UpSampling2D(interpolation="bilinear")(x_in)
model = k.Model(inputs=x_in, outputs=x_out)
model.export("./test_model_export")

raises the following exception on .export():

The error is not triggered when using the default nearest UpSampling2D(), or when using fixed width/height inputs.

Building and training such a model still works, but I can't export it as TF-model or convert it via tf2onnx.

Thanks for the report, this is fixed at HEAD.
