The common datetime helper functions are currently included in the normal
module, but this makes any other module that calls these functions to have
a dependency with the normal module only for this reason.
Since the normal module does a lot of stuff, it calls functions from other
modules. But since other modules may depend on it for calling the datetime
helpers, this could lead to circular dependencies between modules.
As an example, when platform == xen the grub_get_datetime() function from
the datetime module calls to the grub_unixtime2datetime() helper function
from the normal module. Which leads to the following module dependency:
datetime -> normal
and send_dhcp_packet() from the net module calls the grub_get_datetime()
function, which leads to the following module dependency:
net -> datetime -> normal
but that means that the normal module is not allowed to depend on net or
any other module that depends on it due the transitive dependency caused
by datetime. A recent patch attempted to add support to fetch the config
file over the network, which leads to the following circular dependency:
normal -> net -> datetime -> normal
So having the datetime helpers in the normal module makes it quite fragile
and easy to add circular dependencies like these, that break the build due
the genmoddep.awk script catching the issues.
Fix this by taking the datetime helper functions out of the normal module
and instead add them to the datetime module itself. Besides fixing these
issues, it makes more sense to have these helper functions there anyways.

With cryptsetup 2.0, a new version of LUKS was introduced that breaks
compatibility with the previous version due to various reasons. GRUB
currently lacks any support for LUKS2, making it impossible to decrypt
disks encrypted with that version. This commit implements support for
this new format.
Note that LUKS1 and LUKS2 are quite different data formats. While they
do share the same disk signature in the first few bytes, representation
of encryption parameters is completely different between both versions.
While the former version one relied on a single binary header, only,
LUKS2 uses the binary header only in order to locate the actual metadata
which is encoded in JSON. Furthermore, the new data format is a lot more
complex to allow for more flexible setups, like e.g. having multiple
encrypted segments and other features that weren't previously possible.
Because of this, it was decided that it doesn't make sense to keep both
LUKS1 and LUKS2 support in the same module and instead to implement it
in two different modules luks and luks2.
The proposed support for LUKS2 is able to make use of the metadata to
decrypt such disks. Note though that in the current version, only the
PBKDF2 key derival function is supported. This can mostly attributed to
the fact that the libgcrypt library currently has no support for either
Argon2i or Argon2id, which are the remaining KDFs supported by LUKS2. It
wouldn't have been much of a problem to bundle those algorithms with
GRUB itself, but it was decided against that in order to keep down the
number of patches required for initial LUKS2 support. Adding it in the
future would be trivial, given that the code structure is already in
place.

Upgrade Gnulib files to 20190105.
It's much easier to maintain GRUB's use of portability support files
from Gnulib when the process is automatic and driven by a single
configuration file, rather than by maintainers occasionally running
gnulib-tool and committing the result. Removing these
automatically-copied files from revision control also removes the
temptation to hack the output in ways that are difficult for future
maintainers to follow. Gnulib includes a "bootstrap" program which is
designed for this.
The canonical way to bootstrap GRUB from revision control is now
"./bootstrap", but "./autogen.sh" is still useful if you just want to
generate the GRUB-specific parts of the build system.
GRUB now requires Autoconf >= 2.63 and Automake >= 1.11, in line with
Gnulib.
Gnulib source code is now placed in grub-core/lib/gnulib/ (which should
not be edited directly), and GRUB's patches are in
grub-core/lib/gnulib-patches/. I've added a few notes to the developer
manual on how to maintain this.

"F2FS (Flash-Friendly File System) is flash-friendly file system which was merged
into Linux kernel v3.8 in 2013.
The motive for F2FS was to build a file system that from the start, takes into
account the characteristics of NAND flash memory-based storage devices (such as
solid-state disks, eMMC, and SD cards).
F2FS was designed on a basis of a log-structured file system approach, which
remedies some known issues of the older log structured file systems, such as
the snowball effect of wandering trees and high cleaning overhead. In addition,
since a NAND-based storage device shows different characteristics according to
its internal geometry or flash memory management scheme (such as the Flash
Translation Layer or FTL), it supports various parameters not only for
configuring on-disk layout, but also for selecting allocation and cleaning
algorithm.", quote by https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F2FS.
The source codes for F2FS are available from:

util/grub-mkimagexx.c is included in a special way into mkimage.c.
Interoperation between defines makes this very tricky. Instead
just have a clean interface and compile util/grub-mkimage*.c separately
from mkimage.c
Tests file access with all filters enabled. It does it both for local

This includes all files in distribution to not depend on existence
of compression tools and gpg. Test preloads all required modules to
avoid having to provide signatures for them.
Still not implemented is file offset filter (is not available in grub
script, needs extra module)
the function of these files exceeds what can be sanely handled in shell
in posix-comaptible way. Also writing it in C extends the functionality
to non-UNIX-like OS and minimal environments.
