Could you update INSTALL file too? Additionally, if you do such huge change could you move Gnulib from grub-core/gnulib to grub-core/lib/gnulib? Including all diffs which are currently outside of grub-core/gnulib directory. Well, maybe *.diff files should be renamed to *.patch... Could you add to the commit message how to exactly update Gnulib? Just list of steps like in the commit 461f1d8af (Import upstream zstd-1.3.6).
