A user may wish to use an image that is not sorted as the "latest"
version as the top-level entry. For example, in Arch Linux, if a user
has the LTS and regular kernels installed, "/boot/vmlinuz-linux-lts"
gets sorted as the "latest" compared to "/boot/vmlinuz-linux", meaning
the LTS kernel becomes the top-level entry. However, a user may wish to
use the regular kernel as the top-level default with the LTS only
existing as a backup.
This need can be seen in Arch Linux's AUR with two user-submitted
packages[0][1] providing an update hook which patches /etc/grub.d/10_linux
to move the desired kernel to the top-level. This patch serves to solve
this in a more generic way.
Introduce the GRUB_TOP_LEVEL, GRUB_TOP_LEVEL_XEN and GRUB_TOP_LEVEL_OS_PROBER
variables to allow users to specify the top-level entry.
Create grub_move_to_front() as a helper function which moves entries to
the front of a list. This function does the heavy lifting of moving
the menu entry to the front in each script.
In 10_netbsd, since there isn't an explicit list variable, extract the
items that are being iterated through into a list so that we can
optionally apply grub_move_to_front() to the list before the loop.

The current implementation of the 10_kfreebsd script implements its menu
items sorting in bash with a quadratic algorithm, calling "sed", "sort",
"head", and "grep" to compare versions between individual lines, which
is annoyingly slow for kernel developers who can easily end up with
50-100 kernels in their boot partition.
This fix is ported from the 10_linux script, which has a similar
quadratic code pattern.

The GRUB_DISABLE_SUBMENU option is different than the others in the sense
that it has to be set to "y" instead of "true" to be enabled.
That causes a lot of confusion to users, some may wrongly set it to "true"
expecting that will work the same than with most options, and some may set
it to "yes" since for other options the value to set is a word and not a
single character.
This patch changes all the grub.d scripts using the GRUB_DISABLE_SUBMENU
option, so they check if it was set to "true" instead of "y", making it
consistent with all the other options.
But to keep backward compatibility for users that set the option to "y" in
/etc/default/grub file, keep testing for this value. And also do it for
"yes", since it is a common mistake made by users caused by this option
being inconsistent with the others.
