Public bug reported:

When bug reports are filed against shim or shim-signed, we almost always want to know:
 - the output of 'efibootmgr -v'
 - the directory listing of /boot/efi/EFI/ubuntu
 - whether /boot/efi/EFI/ubuntu/shim$efiarch.efi and /usr/lib/shim/shim.efi.signed match
 - whether /boot/efi/EFI/ubuntu/grub$efiarch.efi and /usr/lib/grub/$grubarch-efi-signed/grub$efiarch.efi.signed match

We should have an apport hook that provides this information
automatically.

The hook should be shipped in the shim-signed package, for convenience
of modification without round-tripping to Microsoft for re-signing of
binaries.
