If configfile is relative pathname, extend it with current ($root) so its
interpretation does not change if $root is changed later.
Suggested by Vladimir Serbienko.
Defalut font color on PC console seems to be light-gray; this is
what user also gets in rescue prompt and what is defined as
GRUB_TERM_DEFAULT_NORMAL_COLOR. But normal.mod defaults to white.
This makes unpleasant visual effect as colors are changed after kernel
is booted.
Use the same color eveywhere for consistency and default to light-gray
as this is also what at least Linux kernel is using by default.
grub-install already resolved passed install device to grub device. So do the
same as grub-setup and strip parenthesis if we get legacy (hdX).
I accidentally commited revert of 69ca97c820 and
this patch as part of f585c90505. So this commit
just adds ChangeLog entry and cosmetic whitespace fix.

Introduce common helper for both diskfilter and non-diskfilter case that
converts partition map names into module names.
Compare function used in qsort gets arguments by reference, so strcmp
cannot be used directly - it expects pointer to char, but gets pointer
to pointer to char.
Introduce new helper grub_qsort_strcmp and use it in grub-install.
This helper is going to be used in a couple more places as well so
add it to global file, not in grub-install.c.
Shell version of grub-install called grub-setup which resolved
install device name and called main setup routine. C version of
grub-install calls main setup routine directly, which leads
to the error:
grub2-install: info: grub-bios-setup --verbose --force --skip-fs-probe --directory='/boot/grub2/i386-pc' --device-map='/boot/grub2/device.map' '(hd2)'.
grub2-install: info: reading /boot/grub2/i386-pc/boot.img.
grub2-install: info: reading /boot/grub2/i386-pc/core.img.
grub2-install: info: root is `(null)', dest is `(hd2)'.
grub2-install: info: Opening dest.
grub2-install: info: drive = -1.
grub2-install: error: disk `(hd2)' not found.
Move resolving of destination device name into main setup routine
so it is done consistently in both cases.
Similar to check for target linking format, also check for efiemu64
instead of hardcoding -melf_x86_64. This fixes compilation on *BSD
variants. We cannot easily reuse main target check because platforms
are different (main target is 32 bit and efiemu64 - 64 bit).
This commit adds EFIEMU64_LINK_FORMAT that contains detected
link option and is used in efiemu64.o linking instead of hardcoded
value.

Commit 24f4e57c46 plugged leakage
of CFLAGS between individual tests, which broke test for libgcc
symbols. It needs -nostdlib which was set in previous test and
inherited before. Set it explicitly.
Remove reference to grub-default from description of saved default entry.
Also mention that GRUB_DEFAULT=saved depends on availability of environment
block.
