This fixes a performance issue when pc & gpt partmap iterators
        didn't abort iteration even after our hook found what it was
        looking for (often causing expensive probes of non-existant drives).

        Some callers relied on previous buggy behaviour, since they would
        rise an error when their own hooks caused early abortion of its
        iteration.

        * kern/device.c (grub_device_open): Improve error message.
        * disk/lvm.c (grub_lvm_open): Likewise.
        * disk/raid.c (grub_raid_open): Likewise.

        * partmap/pc.c (pc_partition_map_iterate): Abort parent iteration
        when hook requests it, independently of grub_errno.
        (pc_partition_map_probe): Do not fail when find_func() caused
        early abortion of pc_partition_map_iterate().

        * partmap/gpt.c (gpt_partition_map_iterate): Abort parent iteration
        when hook requests it, independently of grub_errno.
        (gpt_partition_map_probe): Do not fail when find_func() caused
        early abortion of gpt_partition_map_iterate().

        * kern/partition.c (grub_partition_iterate): Abort parent iteration
        when hook requests it, independently of grub_errno.  Do not fail when
        part_map_iterate_hook() caused early abortion of p->iterate().

        * util/biosdisk.c (grub_util_biosdisk_get_grub_dev): Do not fail
        when grub_partition_iterate() returned with non-zero.
