Public bug reported:

this is a follow-up bug for

https://bugs.launchpad.net/oem-priority/+bug/1921539/comments/23

[Impact]
Future releases of shim will require that EFI binaries that are chainloaded include an SBAT region. fwupd in bionic does not currently contain this region.

[Test Case]
Verify that a shim that checks for sbat region can boot the fwupd with sbat region.

[Regression Potential]
This is moving to a new stable release in each of the series which is in bug fix only mode. The sbat region is the only "feature" that has been backported to this series in over a year.
