basically carry-over the checks from pve-manger for pve8to9 [0]:
* 65ffcdd0 ("cli: pve8to9: rework boot-loader suggestions for trixie")
* 7cc36772 ("8 to 9 checks: do not ask bootctl if systemd-boot is used.")
* 2d79b567 ("8 to 9 checks: check for removable grub-install")

(the second patch there is equivalent to this one here, but the commit-message
was reworked (and the v2 part was added).
v1->v2:
* add the check for removable grub
* rework the systemd-boot logic to not check bootctl is-installed, and
fail instead of warn if the package is found after upgrading
