[Bug 1820768] [NEW] [SRU] support new cab format by upgrading to version 1.2.5

[Yuan-Chen Cheng]

Public bug reported:

* Impact

Bios vendor is pushing to put new design into cab file, but that need
new fwupd to support.

* Test case

1. install the new fwupd, and get cab file in new format.
2. fwupdmgr install XXX.cab. (usually we need --allow-reinstall, because we don't have many cab file in new version firmware)
3. reboot and see check if the firmware upgrading is progress well.

* Regression potential
