* Add --no-rs-codes flag to optionally disable reed-solomon codes
in grub-install and grub-bios-setup for x86 BIOS targets.
2013-12-09 Vladimir Serbinenko <phcoder@gmail.com>
Implement sparc64 trampolines (needed for sparc64-emu).

@item --no-rs-codes
By default on x86 BIOS systems, @command{grub-install} will use some
extra space in the bootloader embedding area for Reed-Solomon
error-correcting codes. This enables GRUB to still boot successfully
if some blocks are corrupted. The exact amount of protection offered
is dependent on available space in the embedding area. R sectors of
redundancy can tolerate up to R/2 corrupted sectors. This
redundancy may be cumbersome if attempting to cryptographically
validate the contents of the bootloader embedding area, or in more
modern systems with GPT-style partition tables (@pxref{BIOS
installation}) where GRUB does not reside in any unpartitioned space
outside of the MBR. Disable the Reed-Solomon codes with this option.
