[PATCH v2 1/3] disk: Add support for device-specific malloc function

[Leif Lindholm]

Some disk types have allocation requirements beyond normal grub_malloc.
Add a function pointer to grub_disk_t and a wrapper function in
kern/disk.c making use of that function if available, to enable these
disk drivers to implement their own malloc.
