Subject: [PATCH] Make grub2-mkconfig to honour GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX in
 /etc/default/grub

The kernelopts grub environment variable is set with the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX
value only if wasn't set before. This is because the kernel cmdline params
of the entries are not in the grub.cfg anymore so grub2-mkconfig shouldn't
have side effects on neither the entries nor their kernel cmdline params.

But there's a lot of documentation pointing at modifying GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX
to change the kernel cmdline params and users have built a muscle memory on
it, so the BLS support should be compatible.

Make the grub2-mkconfig script update the $kernelopts environment variable
unless the --no-grubenv-update option is used.

Resolves: rhbz#1637875
