canon-cups-ufr2: 3.70 -> 5.40

[dmayle]

Motivation for this change

The current version of the canon driver doesn't have support for many new printers (notably, in my case, the imageClass MF743CDW). This matches issue #155683

With this, we can close #79689, right?

[dmayle]

@veprbl most likely, yes. There are a large number of printers supported with these drivers, and I've only tested with the one I have access to, which did not require the the preload patching done for 3.70 (nor the updated patching performed in #79689 ), but there's always a chance that there is a printer which might need it.

Looks good

I no longer have a Canon printer for testing -- can you add a commit to this PR removing me from the maintainers list?

Thanks!

[kylesferrazza]

I'll open a new PR :)
