The initial implementation of the stack protector just busy looped
in __stack_chk_fail in order to reduce the amount of code being
executed after the stack has been compromised because of a lack of
firmware memory protections. With future firmware implementations
incorporating memory protections such as W^X, call in to boot services
when an error occurs in order to log a message to the console before
automatically rebooting the machine.

grub_parser_split_cmdline() expands variable names present in the supplied
command line in to their corresponding variable contents and uses a 1 kiB
stack buffer for temporary storage without sufficient bounds checking. If
the function is called with a command line that references a variable with
a sufficiently large payload, it is possible to overflow the stack
buffer via tab completion, corrupt the stack frame and potentially
control execution.

grub_parser_split_cmdline() iterates over each command line character.
In order to add error checking and to simplify the subsequent error
handling, split the character processing in to a separate function.

The getline() function supplied to grub_parser_split_cmdline() returns

check_list() uses grub_file_getline(), which allocates a buffer.
If the hash list file contains invalid lines, the function leaks
this buffer when it returns an error.

Defining a new function with the same name as a previously defined
function causes the grub_script and associated resources for the
previous function to be freed. If the previous function is currently
executing when a function with the same name is defined, this results
in use-after-frees when processing subsequent commands in the original
function.
Instead, reject a new function definition if it has the same name as
a previously defined function, and that function is currently being
executed. Although a behavioural change, this should be backwards
compatible with existing configurations because they can't be
dependent on the current behaviour without being broken.

When grub_json_parse() succeeds, it returns the root object which
contains a pointer to the provided JSON string. Callers are
responsible for ensuring that this string outlives the root
object and for freeing its memory when it's no longer needed.
If grub_json_parse() fails to parse the provided JSON string,
it frees the string before returning an error. This results
in a double free in luks2_recover_key(), which also frees the
same string after grub_json_parse() returns an error.
This changes grub_json_parse() to never free the JSON string
passed to it, and updates the documentation for it to make it
clear that callers are responsible for ensuring that the string
outlives the root JSON object.
