Public bug reported:

[Impact]

 * Installation / upgrades of grub-efi-arm64-signed do not trigger grub-
install operation and thus do not upgrade grub on the ESP.

[Test Case]

 * sudo rm /boot/efi/EFI/ubuntu/grubaa64.efi
 * sudo apt install --reinstall grub-efi-arm64-signed
 * sudo ls /boot/efi/EFI/ubuntu/grubaa64.efi

[Where problems could occur]

 * Since signed arm64 grub is fairly recent, introduction of this
postinst, whilst similar to x86_64, could result in overriding self-
signed grub in ESP under /ubuntu/ boot path. This would be unfortunate,
but shouldn't break machines if they have stock MS keys enrolled.
