Add an extra option to grub-install "--force-extra-removable". On EFI
platforms, this will cause an extra copy of the grub-efi image to be
written to the appropriate removable media patch
/boot/efi/EFI/BOOT/BOOT$ARCH.EFI as well. This will help with broken
UEFI implementations where the firmware does not work when configured
with new boot paths.

Patch-Name: grub-install-extra-removable.patch
Commit 588744d0dc caused grub-mkconfig
no longer to be forgiving of trailing spaces on grub-probe output
lines, which among other things means that util/grub.d/10_linux.in
no longer detects LVM. To fix this, make grub-probe's output
delimiting more consistent. As a bonus, this improves the coverage
of the -0 option.
Fixes Debian bug #735935.
* grub-core/disk/cryptodisk.c
(grub_util_cryptodisk_get_abstraction): Add a user-data argument.
* grub-core/disk/diskfilter.c (grub_diskfilter_get_partmap):
Likewise.

Update prototype.

* util/grub-install.c (push_partmap_module, push_cryptodisk_module,
probe_mods): Adjust for extra user-data arguments.
* util/grub-probe.c (do_print, probe_partmap, probe_cryptodisk_uuid,
probe_abstraction): Use configured delimiter. Update callers.

Patch-Name: probe-delimiter.patch
Some powerpc machines require not updating the NVRAM. This can be handled
by existing grub-install command-line options, but it's friendlier to detect
this automatically.
On chrp_ibm machines, use the nvram utility rather than nvsetenv. (This
is possibly suitable for other machines too, but that needs to be
verified.)

This is not a very good approach, and certainly not sanely upstreamable;
we probably need to split GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR into a couple of different
variables.

grub-install already resolved passed install device to grub device. So do the
same as grub-setup and strip parenthesis if we get legacy (hdX).
I accidentally commited revert of 69ca97c820 and
this patch as part of f585c90505. So this commit
just adds ChangeLog entry and cosmetic whitespace fix.

Introduce common helper for both diskfilter and non-diskfilter case that
converts partition map names into module names.
Compare function used in qsort gets arguments by reference, so strcmp
cannot be used directly - it expects pointer to char, but gets pointer
to pointer to char.
Introduce new helper grub_qsort_strcmp and use it in grub-install.
This helper is going to be used in a couple more places as well so
add it to global file, not in grub-install.c.
the function of these files exceeds what can be sanely handled in shell
in posix-comaptible way. Also writing it in C extends the functionality
to non-UNIX-like OS and minimal environments.
