* New upstream snapshot.

- Fix the generated GNU/Hurd menu entries and also add support for
it in 30_os-prober. (Closes: #555188)
- Same grub-mkrescue for grub-pc and grub-coreboot, used by
grub-rescue-pc during postinst now. (Closes: #501867)
[ Felix Zielcke ]
* Ship grub-mkisofs in grub-common.
* patches/002_grub.d_freebsd.in.diff: Remove (merged upstream).
* patches/906_grub_extras.diff: Remove. Superseded by GRUB_CONTRIB variable
in recent upstream trunk.
* rules: Export GRUB_CONTRIB to enable grub-extras add-ons.
* Pass --force to grub-install in the postinst. (Closes: #553415)
* Don't strip debug symbols from grub-emu. It's meant for debugging
and with them it's much more useful.
* Ship grub-mkfloppy in grub-pc.
* Revert the Replaces: grub-common to (<= 1.96+20080413-1) on the
grub-pc package. It was wrongly modified long ago.
