if a fallback bootloader is installed, but the Grub packages are not set
up to manage it, inform the user about it. this setup is problematic if
the fallback bootloader is used as boot option (now or in the future),
so it's best to fix it up before a problem occurs.
for proxmox-boot-tool managed ESPs, we always install both when
(re)initing the ESPs, this only affects setup with a regular,
always-mounted, single ESP, such as ext4 on top of LVM.

not sure whether this is the place we want to do this check in,
suggestions for that or wording welcome ;)
