The grub2-mkimage tool can be used for building custom images for various
platforms and architectures. But it needs modules for that specific target.
The x86_64-xen target is for PV guest type, the i386-xen_pvh is for PVH
guest type (even for x86_64).

Removes the logic to search for a distro release version based on the --dist
argument and instead makes this as required parameter provided by the
user, reducing code size considerably as the expense of letting the user
responsibility to define it. The --dist argument was also used as branch
name in some cases (where --dist was not defined) so this change splits the
original parameter semantic in two: one for defining the distro release
version (--dist) and another to define the branch name (--branch). Finally, a
short README with single scenario as example.

nx_required was initialized to 0 but was never assigned
a value. Call grub_efi_check_nx_required() to solve this.

Although this patch is correct and at some point it will be
re-introduced, currently shim does not support the loader protocol so
drop it in the meanwhile.

When upgrading from <=2.06-126 to newer versions, the grub config stub
may have different mode than 0600, so set the latter if this is the case.

Fix the rpm verificaton issues (see below) introduced in 2.06.123 [1].
On the other hand, 2.06.125 [2] introduced a change on grub2-mkconfig where
it prevents overwritting {EFI_HOME}/grub.cfg with side effects on the
%posttrans spec script, where it tries to recreate it in case this
file does not exist but due to [2] the {EFI}/grub.cfg file is never
created. Fix the %posttrans code with the logic but applied to
{GRUB_HOME}/grub.cfg.
Issue detected on RHEL CI but also reproduced on fedora since
2.06.123, where this change fixes it.

xz decompression is very slow and slows down boot by around 5 seconds on
aarch64/Apple M1 when using the default font. Switch to lzop, which
takes less than one second to uncompress.
This increases EFI core image size by around 11%.

When installing grub2-tools grub2-tools-minimal is pulled in which
obsoletes grub2-tools causing grub2-tools to not get installed.
Remove the obsoletes so that grub2-tools can be installed again.

8800efcb0b replaced '-a' with '--preserve=timestamps' to avoid
preserving ownership information on non vfat file systems. This breaks
copying of the 'dtb' directory on aarch64 systems since '-a' implies
'-r'. Add '-r' to the single place where 'dtb/' is copied to /boot.
Resolves: #2243060
Fixes: 8800efcb0b ("Do not preserve ownership or xattrs on copied files")

The mkbls() function would write 'linux /vmlinuz-${kernelver}' into the boot
loader entry. But the code that actually copies the file would use the original
file name with a version suffix ('cp -aT "$i" "/boot/${i##*/}-${KERNEL_VERSION}"').
In case of a local kernel build calling /sbin/installkernel this file name was
e.g. 'bzImage', so we would end up with '/bzImage-${KERNEL_VERSION}', which of
course doesn't match '/vmlinuz-*'. The script would later call 'grub2-mkrel'
on the name taken from the boot entry which would fail because the file does not
exist. Rename the argument to "vmlinuz", so that both parts match.
Tested by doing a local kernel build with 'sudo make install' at the end.
