Public bug reported:

[Impact]

synaptics-prometheus: Force the minor version from 0x02 to 0x01 to make
sure the devices can be updated back to 0x01.

[Background]

Synaptics decide to skip 10.02.xxxxxx firmware, so they force the minor version from 0x02 
to 0x01 to make the devices with 0x02 minor version firmware allow to be updated
back to minor version 0x01.

They make a simple patch about this:
https://github.com/fwupd/fwupd/commit/0a11350396df38b98ac3e0bc854fea3d4a1d7918

We should land this commit for synaptics-prometheus users.


[Regression Potential] 
Since this commit comes from Synaptics and just one simple patch with clear object, it should be fairly low risk.
