Grub currently fails to build with recent versions of binutils (e.g
2.28) on the host, with the following error:

checking whether /usr/bin/objcopy works for absolute addresses... no
configure: error: GRUB requires a working absolute objcopy; upgrade your binutils

This is fixed by a patch available in the set of Debian patches, so we
take this opportunity to bump the Debian patch used for Grub. Since
the Debian patch touches acinclude.m4/Makefile.am, we have to
autoreconf.

However, the Debian patch is now available as a regular tarball, so we
can rely on the common <pkg>_PATCH handling, and we no longer need the
custom patch hook.

We also need the usual MAKEINFO=true trick to not have grub try to
regenerate its documentation.
