New bugfix release 20.2.6

[Timo Aaltonen]

[Impact]

This is the last point-release of the 20.2.x-series, we should put it in groovy so latest bugfixes would get there, and for focal because that would minimize the risk of regressions when going from 20.0.x to 20.2.x.

[Test case]

Install the updates, test desktop use and some basic games etc on at least AMD and Intel hw.

[Where things could go wrong]

It's possible that some apps (like games) might regress on some hw, but there should not be a big risk for more wider bugs appearing in this update, since upstream and vendor (Intel) CI machinery have tested these.

I've tested this on Radeon Pro W5700 by playing games via Steam and some Blender use etc, and Intel Kaby Lake. No issues found whatsoever.
