The shell function make_system_path_relative_to_its_root() does not work on Cygwin due to path mapping (e.g. /boot/grub/ is actually /cygwin/boot/grub).

This patch adds '-t prefix' to grub-probe. It prints result from grub_get_prefix() which is already extended for Cygwin (svn rev 1584). The result is used in make_system_path_relative_to_its_root(). This keeps the platform dependent code in getroot.c.

    * util/grub-probe.c (enum): Add PRINT PREFIX.
    (probe): Add PRINT_PREFIX, prints result of
    grub_get_prefix ().
    (usage): Add `prefix' to `-t' usage text.
    Add some '\n' to avoid excess long lines.
    (main): Add check for `-t prefix' option.

This is different than the usual grub-probe usage in that it doesn't operate on a device. Perhaps it would make sense to add the functionality you want in
a separate utility?

I have an increasing feeling that grub-probe is becoming bloated (though I
admit, this is mostly my fault)


Here is a version with works without grub-probe.


Committed, grub-probe not affected.

Now Cygwin support should be complete.
