[PATCH 2/2] Make editenv chase symlinks including those across devices.

[Javier Martinez Canillas]

From: Peter Jones <address@hidden>

This lets us make /boot/grub2/grubenv a symlink to
/boot/efi/EFI/fedora/grubenv even though they're different mount points,
which allows /usr/bin/grub2-editenv to be the same across platforms
(i.e. UEFI vs BIOS).
