Public bug reported:

As referenced on #1752940 some trackers have started blacklisting
Transmission versions below 2.93 on the basis that they have no way of
telling if an older version has been patched for CVE-2018-5702 or not.

Can we try to get 2.93 in Bionic before the final freeze, especially
since this is an LTS and 2.92 is starting to get old (Apr 9, 2016).
