Yes, certain approved systemd/Linux distros (being proprietary seems to be the most important requirement) get their bootloaders and version of Linux signed by microsoft.
>you can very easily make any OS secure boot compatible with a few commands
If the UEFI in use allows intsalling your own keys, yes, otherwise no.
>very useful security feature that prevents the FBI from installing rootkits in your bootloader
The FBI can still install rootkits in your bootloader just fine, with a bit of help from the NSA, considering that I would be very surprised if the NSA didn't subpoena or access via cracking every single signing key for all proprietary signing mechanisms - rather you end up with a false sense of security, as the glowies install whatever they want, with the signature checks passing.
