As noticed in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2239008#c16, when
compiling a kernel as a user and doing 'sudo make install', and when using a
non-vfat fs for the install destination, the file would end up owned by the
user. This is not useful at all, so let's only preserve the timestamps on the
copied file, no other attributes.

The mkbls() function would write 'linux /vmlinuz-${kernelver}' into the boot
loader entry. But the code that actually copies the file would use the original
file name with a version suffix ('cp -aT "$i" "/boot/${i##*/}-${KERNEL_VERSION}"').
In case of a local kernel build calling /sbin/installkernel this file name was
e.g. 'bzImage', so we would end up with '/bzImage-${KERNEL_VERSION}', which of
course doesn't match '/vmlinuz-*'. The script would later call 'grub2-mkrel'
on the name taken from the boot entry which would fail because the file does not
exist. Rename the argument to "vmlinuz", so that both parts match.
Tested by doing a local kernel build with 'sudo make install' at the end.

This enables PXE booting with grub2 rather than syslinux.

The kernel-install script is also used to install kernels when built from
source using the `make install` target.
And if this source contains modifications, a '+' is added as suffix by the
scripts/setlocalversion if no LOCALVERSION was set in the kernel config.
This confuses the grub2 kernel-install plugin, since it currently assumes
that any kernel that contain a version with a '+' suffix is a debug kernel.
But the match is too greedy, just having '+debug' should be enough to check
whether the kernel to install is a debug kernel or not.

The Fedora/ARK kernel is moving to removing gzip as a dependency and
replacing it with xz.
Use xz instead of gz as an extension for the symvers file.

lorax has its own code for building EFI images, and it needs the
font file to do that successfully, so let's make sure it's there
for lorax to find. This doesn't revert the embedding change,
it just reverts the part where we don't bother to install the
font to /boot/grub2/fonts any more.

The extra/efi packages aren't needed in a lot of use cases.
The efi subpackage is actually only useful on EFI based macs.
The extra subpackage isn't useful on cloud/server and a lot
of places where there's no need for pretty GUIs. Stop obsoleting
the tools package so that they're pulled in with every update
even though they may have been actively remove by images or users.
