This was not necessary to include in the SRU of shim-signed to hirsute
(and in fact I specifically omitted the change from the upload I did to
hirsute-proposed, which got clobbered).  But it also doesn't have any
impact for hirsute since -Zxz is already the default, so given that the
package has successfully been installed by users I consider this
verified and not a blocker for the SRU.

Bug description:
  Dpkg's default compression may change to zstd in 21.10 (LP: #1923845).
  The packages listed here should be changed to compress the binary
  packages with xz to make binary copying them to Trusty and Xenial
  safe.
