Remove RedHat grub workaround install

AFAICT this is no longer necessary.  I've tested minimal and image
builds and they seem to work.

The original problem seems to be with installing the package in the
chroot, although it was never quite clear it ever affected the Red Hat
path.

This code is currently broken (see
I884cb1e78ad8c31d985f3fc94a58091b993edd7d).  This is proposed as an
alternative to I74eed074494134334d5e49042bb5214bd0dd7339.

# now configure things to re-install grub at the end. We don't want
# to rely on vm/finalise.d/51-bootloader to simply reinstall the
# package via the package-manager, because at that point (during
# finalise) the build-time yum-cache has been unmounted (hence the
# local-cache looks empty) and yum may try to repopulate the
# local-cache with all the grub2 dependencies. This is slow, and
# potentially fills up the disk.
#
# XXX : At this point, keepcache=0 *should* probably be set for
# yum/dnf. We have not standarised/documented that this will be done,
# however. This would *probably* stop dependencies being populated
# into the cache. We could investigate this, and possibly remove this
# all together if we standardise some of these behaviours.
# So we download the latest grub2 package and setup the install script
# to just install the single-package, which will be called later by
# vm/finalise.d/51-bootloader
