Ian Wienand 7f98cfbcf7 bootloader: clean up EFI checking
The check removed here came in with
I4481b43e4a8fe4144be9c7eb9d9c618bbb2df21e a long time ago.  At that
time we were not building EFI images, and were building i386 images;
both of which are now untrue.

We can simplify this now by merging it into the gpt/mbr path.  If we
are in there we know that we should set --target=i386-pc for BIOS
boot.  For sanity check that we are x86 in this path -- PPC is handled
separately (although it's probably bit-rotted) and ARM64 is EFI.

==========
bootloader
==========

Installs ``grub[2]`` on boot partition on the system.

Arguments
=========

* ``DIB_GRUB_TIMEOUT`` sets the ``grub`` menu timeout.  It defaults to
  5 seconds.  Set this to 0 (no timeout) for fast boot times.

* ``DIB_BOOTLOADER_DEFAULT_CMDLINE`` sets parameters that are appended
  to the ``GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT`` values in ``grub.cfg``
  configuration. It defaults to ``nofb nomodeset gfxpayload=text``.

* ``DIB_BOOTLOADER_SERIAL_CONSOLE`` sets the serial device to be
  used as a console. It defaults to ``hvc0`` for PowerPC, 
  ``ttyAMA0,115200`` for ARM64, otherwise ``ttyS0,115200``.
