Public bug reported:

[Impact]

Double clicking a composite CAB file containing multiple firmware files
displays an error message in gnome-software.

This prevents installing composite firmware CAB files via a GUI unless
they come from LVFS.

[Test Case]

 * Double click a composite CAB file
 * Make sure that it display in gnome software

[Regression Potential]

 * Regression potential is low.  The new code paths are only run when
processing a CAB file with multiple payloads.
