[PATCH kernel-helper v2] fix #7223: proxmox-boot: add memtest86 as entry to all boot-loaders

[Stoiko Ivanov]

memtest86+ ships a config-snippet for grub configuration, and is thus
present on installations using grub (although currently not functional
when secure-boot is enabled), without proxmox-boot-tool.

adding an equivalent entry for memtest86+ on systems, where
proxmox-boot-tool manages the boot-loader seems like an improvement
and a step to having similar functionality in our different
boot-loader setups.

Tested by installing proxmox-kernel-helper with this patch and running
proxmox-boot-tool reinit, followed by rebooting into memtest86+ on a
systemd-booted system. Additionally tested the addition of the entry
in grub, by both installing on a system booted in legacy bios mode and
one where I ran `proxmox-boot-tool init /dev/sdX2 grub` (after
formatting). To get the entry in grub a `proxmox-boot-tool refresh`
call is needed (so that `update-grub` generates the entries). As this
will get called anyways upon installation from ISO, and on each
kernel-upgrade I decided against calling it in `proxmox-boot-tool
init|reinit` additionally.
