Title:
  upgrade fwupd/focal to 1.4.x

Status in OEM Priority Project:
  Fix Released
Status in fwupd package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in fwupd source package in Focal:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Per OEM customer CPU microcode workflow, SBAT update and other bugs
  fixes, we need to SRU focal/fwupd to version 1.4.7.

  [Impact]
   * For new features, please check comment 10.
   * For bug fixes, please check comment 11.
   * There are two incident happened that make OEM customer's machines
     un-bootable. Although there is a manually work-around and takes very
     short time to re-sping another firmware version, it's still bad.
     Per conclusion, customers want to en-roll firmware by themself.
     And that needs this updated fwupd.

  [Test Plan]

   * find a machine and try to upgrade firmware, and confirm it works.

  [Where problems could occur]

   * Per OEM team past experience, we only saw one version display issue
     along the way of upgrading fwupd, and never say any regression.

  [Other Info]

   * update fwupd have a new dependency on libjcat, that's tracked in lp:1920724
   * This version also includes SBAT and it will be compatible with the
     shim update with SBAT.
   * fwupd snap is also used widely. The current fwupd is version 1.5.8.
     version 1.4.7 branch are cherry-picked fixes for user report bug.
     Given so, the risk of upgrading is pretty low.

  [Steps]
  1. upgrade libjcat/universe/focal from version 0.1.0-2 to 0.1.3-2.
  2. MIR libjcat/focal to main.
  3. SRU fwupd/focal from version 1.3.11-1~focal1 to 1.4.7-1~ubuntu20.04.1
