Subject: [PATCH] Add auto-hide menu support

On single-os systems we do not want to show the menu, unless something
went wrong with the previous boot, in which case the user may need the
menu to debug/fix the problem.

This commit adds a new grub.d/00_menu_auto_hide file which emits a
config snippet implementing this. I've chosen to do this in a separate
grub.d file because chances of this going upstream are small and this way
it will be easier to rebase.

Since auto-hiding the menu requires detecting the previous boot was ok,
we get fastboot support (where we don't check for a key at all) for free
so this commit also adds support for this.

The new config-file code uses the following variables:

menu_auto_hide     Set this to "1" to activate the new auto-hide feature
                   Set this to "2" to auto-hide the menu even when multiple
                   operating systems are installed. Note the menu will still
                   auto show after booting an other os as that won't set
                   boot_success.
menu_show_once     Set this to "1" to force showing the menu once.
boot_success       The OS sets this to "1" to indicate a successful boot.
boot_indeterminate The OS increments this integer when rebooting after e.g.
                   installing updates or a selinux relabel.
fastboot           If set to "1" and the conditions for auto-hiding the menu
                   are met, the menu is not shown and all checks for keypresses
                   are skipped, booting the default immediately.

30_os-prober.in changes somewhat inspired by:
https://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-dev/grub/+git/ubuntu/tree/debian/patches/quick_boot.patch

Changes in v2:
-Drop shutdown_success tests, there is no meaningful way for systemd to set
 this flag (by the time it knows all filesystems are unmounted or read-only
-Drop fwsetup_once support, systemd already supports booting directly into
 the fwsetup by doing "systemctl reboot --firmware"
