Fixes #514

I've tested that this is enough to get the RC image building locally.

The shim-signed package from Ubuntu was updated 2 days ago to include some flags in the debian control file to prevent accidental removal of the package. During the phase of the build that was failing, live-build temporarily installs grub and the shim to make the boot sector of the iso image, and then tries to remove them again afterwards to clean up after itself. Since Ubuntu updated shim-signed, it wasn't able to remove it anymore, without an additional flag.

I'll get this proposed as a patch upstream and then we can add a comment in here with a link to the PR. But I've proposed here first so we can at least get going with building an RC image.
