more user friendly, especially the GRUB (USB) one

Faulty keyboards make GRUB unusable. Normally it happens
when a user plugs in a faulty USB keyboard, but if it's
the laptop keyboard, then GRUB becomes unusable and the
user cannot boot anything.
So, your laptop keyboard is a ticking timebomb if you use
GRUB; with this patch, that's no longer the case.

also, enable seabios_withgrub on e6400, but not grubfirst;
right now, we also support dgpu which would brick on
grubfirst. on my tested nvidia model, loading grub from
seabios worked, so i'm going to re-add seabios_grubfirst
functionality like in older libreboot revisions, enabled
selectively on a given target.
e6430 currently only has igpu support anyway, but i've done
the same thing there, in anticipation of future dgpu support.
e6400 and e6430 ec report scancode set 2 with translation
by default, but only actually output scancode set 1
grub is trying to use scancode set 2 without scancode
translation, so the key inputs get messed up
fix it by forcing scancode set 2 with translation, but
only on coreboot; other build targets on GRUB will
retain the same behaviour as before
courtesy goes to Nicholas Chin who inspired me, and
helped me to fix this. tested on Nicholas's E6400
and E6430, and my E6400; Riku also tested it on
non-Dell, as did I (some thinkpads), and all seems OK.
The new behaviour in coreboot GRUB is essentially no
different to that of SeaBIOS, which does the same.

it's been a while since we did encrypted /boot
and the current name sucks.
it's unlikely that anyone still uses it, but
people will soon
change the default assumed lvm name to grubcrypt
and stick to that.

The pager causes trouble in some cases, where the user has
to press enter at boot time depending on the configuration.
Interactive use is one thing, but we should leave this
disabled for smoother experience. If the user *wishes* to
use the shell, they can always just enable the pager
themselves by doing:
set pager=1

also, some of them were out of date; years now updated.

target.cfg can now specify e.g.
grub_timeout=20
this would then be inserted as timeout.cfg in cbfs,
containing the instruction:
set timeout=20
HP laptops need a bit of extra time, due to the delay
caused by the EC bug workaround deployed in GRUB
desktops in general need extra time. this too is set to
10s, like the HP laptops.
only insert timeout.cfg if actually needed (declared in
target.cfg), otherwise grub.cfg will default to 5s

for example, the beep sound in debian's installer needs
this module.
the cute ding in the arch/artix menu also needs it

this causes a saving of about 131KB uncompressed, when
i tested. we don't need mach kernel support. nobody will
ever use it.

this causes a 6.7% decrease in the payload size
these file systems are microsoft(fat, ntfs) or mostly
oldschool amiga and beos file systems
also remove minix modules, and some old linux file
systems that nobody will use in 2023
