This can cause an issue where GRUB is trying to display both a text and
graphical menu on the display at the same time, resulting in a flickering
effect when e.g. scrolling quickly through a menu (LP: #1752767).
Revert for now while we look for a better solution for the original issue.
This reverts commit 52ef7b23f5.

grub-mkconfig will set GRUB_TERMINAL_OUTPUT to "gfxterm" unless the user
has overridden it. On EFI systems, this will stop output from going to the
default "console" terminal. When the EFI fw console is configured to output to
both serial and video, this will cause GRUB to only display on video - while
continuing to accept input from both video and serial.
Instead of switching from "console" to "gfxterm", let's output to both.

Add a new timeout_style environment variable and a corresponding
GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE configuration key for grub-mkconfig. This
controls hidden-timeout handling more simply than the previous
arrangements, and pressing any hotkeys associated with menu entries
during the hidden timeout will now boot the corresponding menu entry
immediately.
GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=<non-empty> + GRUB_TIMEOUT=<non-zero> now
generates a warning, and if it shows the menu it will do so as if
the second timeout were not present. Other combinations are
translated into reasonable equivalents.
