[Bug 1820768] Re: [SRU] support new cab format by upgrading fwupd to version 1.2.5

[Sebastien Bacher]

I didn't deal with fwupdate-signed but from past discussion I think we
are going to want to remove this one to only have one signed binary in
the archive. I don't think it's going to block the SRU to be accepted
but would still be nice to handle it ... does anyone want to look at
that one?

Unsure what's the deal with fwupdate then. Mario I guess you remember
how upgrades were only in cosmic? Does  fwupdate needs to get removed
when fwupd is installed? Did you do anything to ensure the old one is
not leftover on upgrade?

Bug description:
  * Impact

  Bios vendor is pushing to put new design into cab file, and also new
  docking under development need the new fwupd to support it.

  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 any cab file in new version firmware)
  3. reboot and see check if the firmware upgrading is progress well.

  * Regression potential
