The grubby wrapper sets the saved_entry in grubenv to the entry title
field since that's done by grubby. But for BLS the id is the filename
without the .conf extension, this saved_entry is set to this when a
new kernel is installed.
So for consistency also use the entry id for the --set-default option.

This information can be useful for users to know what's the BLS entry
that was set as the default.

The script uses sed to modify the options field in the BLS entries, but it
is using a ',' character as the sed delimiter. It's total valid to have a
kernel command line parameter that contains that character, for example:
$ grubby --add-kernel=/boot/vmlinuz --args="console=ttyS0,115200n81" \
--initrd=/boot/initrd.img --make-default --title=install
sed: -e expression #1, char 42: unknown option to `s'
Fix this by using a different delimiter that won't be present in a cmdline.

When a new BLS entry is added, the script checks if the kernel image exists
and also if it was installed from a rpm package. But the latter isn't really
needed, it should be valid to just copy a kernel image and add a BLS entry.

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.

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.
