This is a reintroduction of bug 1928674 because Steve fixed that locally
in a grub2-unsigned upload in bionic that got overriden by a binary copy
again because everybody forgot about that and you don't see it in
testing because the conffiles stay around after upgrades I suppose.

We should move the files to grub2-common instead of reintroducing them
in grub-efi-amd64 because while that's easier to reintroduce there, it's
also more likely to get screwed up by more security uploads.

** Package changed: grub2-unsigned (Ubuntu) => grub2 (Ubuntu)

** Changed in: grub2 (Ubuntu)
       Status: Confirmed => Invalid

** Changed in: grub2 (Ubuntu Bionic)
       Status: Confirmed => Triaged

** Also affects: grub2-unsigned (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Undecided
       Status: New

Bug description:
  A user reported that the GRUB menu was no longer being updated on a
  freshly deployed bionic system, and that this appears to be because
  /etc/kernel/postinst.d/zz-update-grub has disappeared.

  # The version in the bionic-security pocket has it:
  ubuntu at akis:~$ dpkg -c grub-efi-amd64_2.04-1ubuntu44.1.2_amd64.deb | grep zz
  -rwxr-xr-x root/root       646 2021-03-03 11:42 ./etc/kernel/postinst.d/zz-update-grub
  -rwxr-xr-x root/root       646 2021-03-03 11:42 ./etc/kernel/postrm.d/zz-update-grub

  # The version in bionic-updates does not:
  ubuntu at akis:~$ dpkg -c grub-efi-amd64_2.04-1ubuntu47.4_amd64.deb | grep zz
