Update to grub 2.04
This change updates grub to the 2.04 release. The new release changed how
grub is built, so the bootstrap and bootstrap.conf files have to be added
to the dist-git. Also, the gitignore file changed so it has to be updated.

Since the patches have been forward ported to 2.04, there's no need for a
logic to maintain a patch with the delta between the release and the grub
master branch. So the release-to-master.patch is dropped and no longer is
updated by the do-rebase script.

Also since gnulib isn't part of the grub repository anymore and cloned by
the boostrap tool, a gnulib tarball is included as other source file and
copied before calling the bootstrap tool. That way grub can be built even
in builders that only have access to the sources lookaside cache.

Subject: [PATCH] Accept ESC, F8 and holding SHIFT as user interrupt keys
On some devices the ESC key is the hotkey to enter the BIOS/EFI setup
screen, making it really hard to time pressing it right. Besides that
ESC is also pretty hard to discover for a user who does not know it
will unhide the menu.
This commit makes F8, which used to be the hotkey to show the Windows
boot menu during boot for a long long time, also interrupt sleeps /
stop the menu countdown.
This solves the ESC gets into the BIOS setup and also somewhat solves
the discoverability issue, but leaves the timing issue unresolved.
This commit fixes the timing issue by also adding support for keeping
SHIFT pressed during boot to stop the menu countdown. This matches
what Ubuntu is doing, which should also help with discoverability.
