When booting an ppc64 machine on bare-metal (PowerNV) the OPAL firmware
interface is used. The firmware contains the Petitboot boot-loader that
can be used to parse the BootLoaderSpec (BLS) snippets in a BLS setup.
But machines could have an older version of Petitboot that doesn't have
BLS support, so on ppc64 machines can't be assumed that just modifying
the BLS files is enough for those changes to be reflected in the boot
menu. Instead, grub2-mkconfig is executed so the BLS can be parsed and
produce a grub config file that can be used by any Petitboot version.

So what's happened here is this:
- we planned on not having the grubby binary in this package at all
anymore
- when we did test builds like that, find-debuginfo.sh broke
- since it was completely inconsequential, we disabled building
debuginfo
- then we re-thought the package layout, and decided to build that
binary anyway, but forgot to turn debuginfo back on
- also we build the binary as -fPIE, which file(1) says is a "shared
object"
- brp-strip does not act on shared objects, so it didn't strip
As a result, rpmdiff noticed our binary was not stripped.
This patch re-enables debuginfo, which will cause our binary to get
stripped, as well as to have the correct debuginfo packages in the
output.

We need to cary this in f29 until we have the anaconda patches in and
get grubby out of the default install, so we'll have BLS configs and not
need grubby to update them.

Add a grubby wrapper script that allows to manage BootLoaderSpec files by
using the same command line options supported by the grubby tool. This is
provided for backward compatibility for grubby users that swtich to BLS.

When grubby is not installed, the zipl configuration has to be changed
to use the BLS configuration files.

By default the grub2-switch-to-blscfg script uses .bak as the suffix for
saved files, but it should use .rpmsave when called from a RPM scriptlet.

This apparently interacts poorly with grub2-mkconfig's title generation
and causes weird errors, so it's not ready yet.
This commit also fixes some quoting errors in the dtbdir n-k-p code.
