I grabbed the signed binary for 2.06-2ubuntu14 from kinetic and
netbooting worked fine. The other binaries are identical to that one
except signature, so I'll refrain from fetching each deb manually as we
only test chainloading compatability in that test case.

I have also run the kinetic grub with the new shim on my T14 G3 which
booted nicely, hooray.

dannf also booted the focal 2.06 upload in at least one fancy machine.

Up next, I'll boot entire systems in VMs to finish validation.

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  security update staged in updates

  [Test plan]
  Boot it on multiple systems. Notably juliank will be doing semi-automated testing in QEMU that does chainbooting over network (shim->grub->shim->grub); and boots on T14 G3 AMD and an XPS 13; chrisccoulson did his own security testing before that.

  [Where problems could occur]
  Font loading is disabled, could cause rendering issues

  Unicode font stuffed in xz squashfs, could cause more memory issues
  during boot
