this part of the hook applies only to systems not using pbt for
bootmangement.

Currently our ISO installs grub-pc unconditionally - and never the
conflicting grub-efi-amd64. Both packages are responsible for
running grub-install (for the appropriate disks) upon an upgrade of
grub.

This results in grub currently not getting updated on uefi-booted
systems (which do not use proxmox-boot-tool).

The patch causes a warning to be printed to notify the user.

Also considered putting the check+warning in d/postinst - but this way
it will get triggered more often (upon every
kernel-upgrade/update-initramfs, instead of only on
proxmox-kernel-helper updates, which are less often), increasing the
chances of being noticed.

checking for the changelog-presence was chosen, over `dpkg-query` for
the status, for consistency with the similar patch for pve7to8 (and
potentially a small speed-gain).
