lockdown: set default (with Secure Boot) to LOCKDOWN_INTEGRITY_MAX

LOCKDOWN_CONFIDENTIALITY_MAX restricts a lot of useful features, even security ones (like monitoring via BPF), while not adding that much value for common use cases. Set the default level to LOCKDOWN_INTEGRITY_MAX as Ubuntu, RedHat and SUSE did recently. iovisor/bcc#2565 (comment) https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1868626 https://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-kernel/ubuntu/+source/linux/+git/focal/commit/?id=ef7c6600bb3e https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1815571 Closes: #956197
