Subject: bug#44196: [PATCH 3/3 v2] gnu: grub: Add locale output.

From: Miguel Ángel Arruga Vivas <[email-masked]>
Date: Sun, 25 Oct 2020 11:04:22 +0100

This v2 doesn't change the other patches, only this one, because it was
the one I wasn't happy with.  It changes from v1 as the separate output
"locale" is not generated, but instead the mo files are placed into
share/locale with the expected names.
