Bug Description

We're adding support for resilient boot, by modifying grub-install to teach it about other ESPs we're installing to, and wrapping it in a wrapper script that installs over all ESPs.

This way you can install grub to multiple ESPs which allows you to have one ESP per disk in a raid system, for example.

I have extensively tested the grub2 package on amd64, with one, two, and three ESPs. I have not done any testing of the signed package, because I do not have infra around to sign grub and trust it.

This change got lost in groovy as groovy continued from the reverted 1.41 instead of the 1.40.x branch.

This bug was fixed in the package shim-signed - 1.45

---------------
shim-signed (1.45) groovy; urgency=medium

  * Merge back changes from focal that got lost in the shim revert, as
    groovy carried on from the reverted 1.41 upload and did not merge
    back 1.40.{1,2,3}:
    - Depend on the correct version of grub-signed (LP: #1871895)
    - Install grub to multiple ESPs (LP: #1871821)
    - Pass --timeout -1 to mokutil in a separate mokutil run (LP: #1869187),
      thanks to Aleksander Miera for the patch.
