  Log Message:
  -----------
  Drop support for all boot methods other than isolinux

The "grub2" and "manifold" options for HYBRID_METHOD as well as the
"grub" and "grub2" options for BOOT_METHOD are not used by any official
Grml ISO. But they add considerable overhead and complexity in our
code base.

I'd like to keep our code base simple and avoid feature creep, so let's
deprecate BOOT_METHOD, and drop support for HYBRID_METHOD other than
isolinux.

FTR: isolinux/syslinux is used for BIOS boot, GRUB is still relevant and
used for EFI boot.
