[Mario Limonciello]

SBAT support was merged into 1.5.7 release that is present in Hirsute.  It is also backported to 1_4_X, 1_3_X, and 1_2_X branches however those have not had point releases created yet.
I've filed this to request it: https://github.com/fwupd/fwupd/issues/3057.  Feel free to add more color.

Title:
  upgrade fwupd/focal to 1.4.x

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

Bug description:
  Per OEM customer work flow, we need to SRU focal/fwup to version 1.4.x

  Per currently groovy fwupd is version 1.4.5-1, per SRU quality POV, it's
  rather a low risk to do so.

  [Impact]

   * There are two incident happened that make OEM customer's machine
     un-bootable. Although it can be manually work-around and take very
     short time to re-sping another firmware version, it's still bad.
     Per conclusion, customer want to en-roll firmware by themself.
     And that need update fwupd.

  [Test Plan]

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

  [Where problems could occur]

   * Given fwupd 1.4.5 is landed in groovy, it's fairly safe to do so.

  [Other Info]

   * update fwupd have new dependency on libjcat, that's tracked in
  lp:1920724

  
  [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 1.4.5-1~ubuntu20.04.1
