The environment block is a preallocated 1024-byte file which serves as persistent storage for environment variables. It has its own format which is sensitive to corruption if an editor does not know how to process it. Besides that the editor may inadvertently change grubenv file size and/or make it sparse which can lead to unexpected results. This patch adds a message to the grubenv file to warn a user against editing it by tools other than grub-editenv.
