[Bug 1464852] [NEW] document /etc/grub.d/ templates

Public bug reported:

Although customization is possible by changing `/etc/default/grub` and
adding custom templates as described in `/etc/grub.d/README` it's
necessary to document the functions in the templates in `/etc/grub.d/`
(arguments, which constants are used, etc.). The fact that the bad
practice to not document shell code at all is common doesn't count.
