Dear GRUB developers!

Xen PvGrub2 can not boot Debian 13 Trixie kernels (on Debian Dom0, at
least) as those are compressed with zstd and not xz and so pvgrub
fails with 'error: not xen image.' (Debian bug #1102066).

This seems to originate from grub-core/loader/i386/xen_file.c line 92
- as I understand, PvGrub2 is now integrated into GNU GRUB.

As zstd has been in GRUB for a while, could someone please help me
patch the zstd  support to the xen pvgrub? I already built
grub-x86_64-xen.bin from the latest git source but I would rather not
learn the internals of GRUB if someone already knows it and could
patch this cleanly ;)

Thank you ;)

Best wishes:
Elmar
