Bug description:
  [Impact] Various customised images have upgrade problems because they don't have a way to add grub-mkconfig configuration without editing /etc/default/grub directly.
  [Test Case] Check that setting something in /etc/default/grub.d/new-file.cfg affects grub-mkconfig, e.g. by setting GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX and checking that update-grub causes it to be passed through to /boot/grub/grub.cfg.
  [Regression Potential] I think the main thing is to make sure that nothing goes wrong when /etc/default/grub.d/ is missing.

  Original report follows:

  It would be good to be able to keep the settings in /etc/default/grub
  pristine, and allow overides via /etc/grub.d/.

  The one of most interest is:
  GRUB_DEFAULT=0 -> GRUB_DEFAULT=saved

  Thanks.
