[Bug 2067886] Re: Remove the XFS /boot upgrade check for noble

I upgraded using the `--proposed` command. When it asked me to reboot at
the end, I did, and then, after the GRUB menu, the graphical interface
never came up. (I waited a reasonable amount of time.) I had to power
off the PC (holding down power button). After that, I was able to boot
the system successfully after entering recovery mode and then resuming
the normal boot sequence. (I'll do a normal (re)boot later.) I'm not
sure what's so "special" about rebooting that my system would hang.

There are other issues, like icon-only taskbar icons for the Firefox and
Thunderbird going missing, and them not showing up using the built-in
search of the Application Launcher... or anywhere else, for that matter.
(No, they're not even listed under the Internet section...)

I suppose that at least the particular fix of removing the obsolete
upgrade-aborting workaround worked as intended. As for the rest of it,
well...

Title:
  Remove the XFS /boot upgrade check for noble

Status in ubuntu-release-upgrader package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in ubuntu-release-upgrader source package in Noble:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  Upgrades for users with XFS /boot are wrongly blocked for noble as the workaround for mantic hasn't been removed.

  [Test plan]
  Run an upgrade on an affected system. The upgrade should not be blocked:

  $ do-release-upgrade --proposed

  [Where problems could occur]
  We are just removing a quirk, so there is very low risk. However, it is possible that other upgrade bugs exist for such platforms, and that they would be revealed by us removing this quirk.
