[VERIFICATION FOCAL]

This was tested using the following proposed pkg:
sosreport 3.9-1ubuntu2.1

I confirmed the sosreport's hw plugin collect 'lshw' command as root,
and its content is accurate.

# lsb_release -cs
focal

# sosreport -a
# cd /tmp
# tar Jxvf sosreport*.tar.xz
# sudo lshw | tee /tmp/lshw_not_from_sosreport.focal

# diff -u /tmp/lshw_not_from_sosreport.focal /path_to_sosreport/sos_commands/hardware/lshw

The "size:" is dynamic so it keeps changing at each lshw run, the rest remain identical.
No content missing/altered/... during the lshw sosreport collection.
