6400613ad0 Make grub-install check for errors from efibootmgr
Code is currently ignoring errors from efibootmgr, giving users
clearly bogus output like:

        Setting up grub-efi-amd64 (2.02~beta3-4) ...
        Installing for x86_64-efi platform.
        Could not delete variable: No space left on device
        Could not prepare Boot variable: No space left on device
        Installation finished. No error reported.

and then potentially unbootable systems. If efibootmgr fails, grub-install
should know that and report it!

We've been using similar patch in Debian now for some time, with no ill effects.

a24725cc6e Change grub_install_register_efi interface to pass GRUB device.
This allows grub_install_register_efi to request partition info
	directly.

61e1b9a49d * grub-core/osdep/unix/platform.c (get_ofpathname): Trim ending newline.
Don't rely on PATH_MAX.

cd46aa6cef Rewrite grub-install, grub-mkrescue, grub-mkstandalone and grub-mknetdir
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.
