This version doesn't modify grub package at all, and it only generates
the folder when needed, and fixes a bug in Grub 2.04 that I didn't
noticed until I started playing with the installer:

Happy hacking!

Subject: [PATCH v3 3/5] system: Do not depend on locale folder generated by
grub-install.
* gnu/bootloader/grub.scm (define-module): Use (guix packages).
(grub-locale-folder): New computed folder.
(grub-configuration-file)[locale-config]: Use grub-locale-folder only when a
locale is needed.
