some upgrades result in unbootable systems, which can be traced back to grub being installed in BOOTX64.efi, but not being upgraded by grub-install. Refer the cases to the output of `proxmox-boot-tool refresh` as it has a sensible check logic for those cases. Some affected systems printed the warning of proxmox-boot-tool, but it was lost in the large output of the dist-upgrade.
