Title:
  FFe: Move fwupd to zstd instead of xz

Status in fwupd package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in libxmlb package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Fwupd 1.9.16 and libxmlb 0.3.16 have added support to get metadata
  from LVFS using ZSTD format instead of of XZ format.

  In light of CVE-2024-3094 and Ubuntu 24.04 being an LTS I wanted to
  discuss considering an upgrade to libxmlb 0.3.16 and fwupd 1.9.16 to
  make fwupd not use xz by default.
