Adds support for including custom
embedded grub configs. The default one
provided in OE-core is limited to everything
being in the /EFI/BOOT directory.

Some users may want their modules
and configs in /boot/grub instead.

The cfg file is in SRC_URI, so you can do this with a simple bbappend to provide a replacement cfg file without any changes to the recipe.

O yeah!!

We can drop this patch.
Don't know what I was thinking here.
