Bug#991478: [shim-signed] RFE: do not brick users' systems in the stable distribution

The suggestion was from one of the maintainers of APT, so I think we can
trust the feature to be properly supported. To be more correct, similar
support is documented in apt_preferences, just not in the context of
Default-Release.
