[FFE] Update mokutil to fb6250f2
Status in mokutil package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in mokutil source package in Trusty:
Fix Committed
Status in mokutil source package in Xenial:
Fix Committed
Status in mokutil source package in Bionic:

Bug description:
[Impact]
Potentially any Ubuntu users on UEFI systems; as mokutil is used to control from the userland the behavior of Secure Boot via shim.
New features have been introduced in mokutil that we'll want to make
use of in supported releases along with the new shim updates:
- Better control of timeout for the MokManager prompts
- Exporting PK, KEK, DB, MOK keys to be used to streamline upgrades and avoid failing upgrades when custom-signed kernels are in use.
[Test case]
== Disabling timeout ==
1) Run 'sudo mokutil --timeout -1'.
2) Run 'sudo mokutil --reset' (or another command that requires user interaction in MokManager)
2) On reboot, validate that MokManager does not show a timeout screen, and instead immediately stops at the menu.
== Changing timeout ==
1) Run 'sudo mokutil --timeout 666'.
2) Run 'sudo mokutil --reset' (or another command that requires user interaction in MokManager)
2) On reboot, validate that MokManager shows a timer of 666 seconds before continuing to reboot, waiting for user input.
== Exporting keys ==
1) Run 'sudo mokutil --export --db'; 'sudo mokutil --export --kek', etc.
2) Validate that mokutil allows exporting the contents of DB, KEK, etc.
[Regression potential]
This affects the userland tool used to communicate tasks to have done by MokManager at early boot. As such, any failure to enroll certificates, to disable validation in shim, to export keys or list keys should be investigated as possible regressions caused by this update.
