[coreboot] Grub2 for Coreboot

[Nachiketh G]

Hi Gregg,
You were spot an about updating my build tools, I did that and also
downgraded to a different version of Grub2 from the repository(1.99) and I
was able to compile it! I now have an elf file ready to integrate with
Coreboot.
Thanks!
Regards,
Nachiketh
