Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better. I suspect a support site would be more appropriate, e.g.

Title:
  Upgrade failed to install proper SDDM components and session drop down
  (x11 vs wayland) was empty

Status in ubuntu-release-upgrader package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  do-release-upgrade -d" completed successfully but resulted in a
  session with the "non-SDDM" login prompt and no available windows
  manager in the drop down. Ctrl-alt-f2 failed to produce a usable
  terminal... unsure how to fix without a terminal and thus recovered
  with a fresh install.
