Andreas: The test plan for the assets included in cd-boot-images- is
ensuring that it matches the expected version of the packages; the boot
tests are part of their SRUs.

We don't do any real testing of cd-boot-images per se, it only affects
image builds, so what we need to do generally speaking is test it
contains the expected thing and then release it such that ISOs can be
built with it and ISO testing happens.

Bug description:
  [ Impact ]

   * Microsoft is rolling out SBAT revocations via Windows update such that
     single-boot machines with Windows won't be able to boot shim executables
     with SBAT level less than shim,4.

   * For the 22.04.5 media we would like to include the 15.8 shim so that
     it is bootable on such machines.

  [ Test Plan ]

   * Ensure that the resulting cd-boot images contain our 15.8-0ubuntu1 MS UEFI
     CA signed shim executable.

  [ Where problems could occur ]

   * Impact is limited to media built using the new cd-boot images which will go
     through the usual rigorous QA process.

   * The shim and grub that will be used as part of this process will be in the Jammy
     archive before being part of media.
