Public bug reported:
grub-multi-install is not locale stable, which means, for systems with
multiple ESPs, running:
sudo LC_ALL=C dpkg-reconfigure grub-efi-arm64
and
sudo LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 dpkg-reconfigure grub-efi-arm64
stores different output in grub-efi/install_devices, for example:
with LC_ALL=C:
* grub-efi/install_devices:
/dev/disk/by-id/nvme-Micron_7450_MTFDKBA480TFR_254954CD71E8-part1,
/dev/disk/by-id/nvme-Micron_7450_MTFDKBA480TFR_254954CD7CF6-part1
with LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8:
* grub-efi/install_devices:
/dev/disk/by-id/nvme-eui.000000000000000100a0752554cd71e8-part1,
/dev/disk/by-id/nvme-eui.000000000000000100a0752554cd7cf6-part1
note that, options selected in LC_ALL=C are not checked in
LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8, all the available ESP listed are unselected.

This can cause issues that grub-efi/install_devices are overwritten with
incorrect values when GRUB is upgraded and reinstalled with locales
different from C
