grubby - /boot on btrfs support

We've built grubby with support for /boot on btrfs. We're trying to
land this in F28. But we need testers. That's where you come in! If
you ever interact with grubby and especially if you have an exotic
grub2 setup, please download and test this release. As usual provide
feedback in Bodhi (link at the top of this email). Thanks!

Just tested new grubby on two systems. Here is my subvols layout from one
of those systems (my laptop):

# btrfs subvolume list -R /
ID 257 gen 1381846 top level 5 received_uuid -
       path root
ID 535 gen 1381846 top level 257 received_uuid -
         path var
ID 536 gen 1376990 top level 257 received_uuid -
         path home
ID 537 gen 1381838 top level 257 received_uuid -
         path boot
ID 746 gen 1381846 top level 535 received_uuid -
         path var/lib/mysql
ID 1287 gen 1364400 top level 535 received_uuid -
         path var/lib/machines
ID 1325 gen 1381846 top level 536 received_uuid -
         path home/tkloczko
ID 1326 gen 1381756 top level 1325 received_uuid -
           path home/tkloczko/git

           path home/tkloczko/git/fedora
ID 1328 gen 1381756 top level 1326 received_uuid -
           path home/tkloczko/git/linux-git
ID 1329 gen 1380131 top level 1325 received_uuid -
           path home/tkloczko/src-packages
ID 1331 gen 1381807 top level 1329 received_uuid -
           path home/tkloczko/src-packages/fedora
ID 1332 gen 1381082 top level 1329 received_uuid -
           path home/tkloczko/src-packages/suse
ID 1333 gen 1381554 top level 1329 received_uuid -
           path home/tkloczko/src-packages/altlinux
ID 1334 gen 1380955 top level 1329 received_uuid -
           path home/tkloczko/src-packages/centos
ID 1335 gen 1381188 top level 1329 received_uuid -
           path home/tkloczko/src-packages/mageia
ID 1336 gen 1381748 top level 1329 received_uuid -
           path home/tkloczko/src-packages/debian

Looks like it works.
On the second system, I have no separated /boot and grub2.cfg has been
updated correctly as well.
Good job 👍💪
Now it would be good to remove from anaconda blocking use btrfs on roofs as
well 😃

Thomasz, could you please leave karma on the bodhi update?

https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/grubby-8.40-10.fc28

I already have a patch against anaconda.
