Bug description:
  [Impact]

  Versions of fwupd older than 1.4.6 can not support upgrading Synaptics
  fingerprint readers.

  
  [Test Case]
  Try to update firmware from a synaptics fingerprint reader.

  [Regression Potential]
  This will require moving to fwupd 1.4.6 which is newer than the release in focal.  The patches for Synaptics fingerprint reader support depend upon daemon code that is not present in the 1.3.x series.

  There may be potentially other bugs with moving to this release.  More
  devices are supported which might mean exercising extra code paths.
