Public bug reported:

Installer crashes when trying to install Ubuntu on a dual-boot Dell XPS
15 9550 with a Samsung NVM drive where the Linux partition is encrypted.
Error message is "grub-efi-amd64-signed failed to install into /target/"

I have tried to run grub-install from recovery and boot-repair with boot 
summary, all fails. The errors and boot summary info are documented in this 
unsolved support thread.
