This requires uploads of grub2 and grub2-{un,}signed to focal to bump
the versioned number in the Replaces (grub2-common) and ensure upgrades
from bionic to focal get a newer grub-efi-* with the correct lack of
conffiles.

> How can you introduce conffiles in grub-efi-amd64 & grub-efi-arm64
which is shared across releases?

By not sharing it across releases.

> That will cause a mess in focal+ then, since it will conflict with
grub2-common there.

Not with separate uploads to bionic and focal.

Which is less of a mess than having grub2-common in < focal having to
declare a Replaces: on the versions of the grub binaries from grub2
source shipped in those releases.

  [Impact]
  
   * /etc/kernel/{postinst.d,postrm.d}/zz-update-grub missing on arm64
  with grub-efi-arm64 (a dependency of grub-efi-arm64-signed) installed
  
   * /etc/kernel/{postinst.d,postrm.d}/zz-update-grub missing on amd64
  with grub-efi-amd64 (an ORed dependency of grub-efi-amd64-signed)
  installed.
  
   * This results in newly installed kernels not getting added to grub.cfg
  and thus upon reboot one does not boot into the new kernel.
  
   * In later series these scripts moved to grub2-common, which is why
  they are absent in the backported grub-efi-* packages.  They should be
  restored to these packages in the backport.
  
  [Test Plan]
  
   * Install new grubs
  
   * If testing on amd64 ensure that grub-efi-amd64 is installed, not
  grub-pc.
  
   * Install a new kernel that was not installed before
  
   * Observe that grub.cfg is regenerated and new kernel is present
  
   * Remove an old kernel
  
   * Observe that grub.cfg is regenerated and new kernel is removed from
  grub.cfg
  
+  * From bionic, verify that a dist-upgrade to each of groovy, hirsute,
+ and impish works without conflicts.

  [Where problems could occur]
  
   * These are conffiles. Although nobody should modify them, care should
  be taken when moving conffiles around.
