v0.2.28

New features

• Allows update EFI bootloader on riscv64 similar to aarch64 and x86_64 by @dustymabe in #916.
• Support updating multiple EFIs in mirrored setups (RAID1) by @HuijingHei in #855.

Notable fixes

• Rework grub2 default static config by @champtar in #841, that includes:

  • Add support for GRUB2_PASSWORD in user.cfg (partially fix https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-78299)
  • Include dropins instead of sourcing them, this should help updating config in the future
  • Add multiple small dropins to match classic grub2 installs

• Add a simple implementation of fsfreeze_thaw_cycle(), that always call syncfs() first, then calls ioctl(FIFREEZE) and ioctl(FITHAW). This function ensures filesystem state is fully flushed — especially for XFS by @champtar in #948.

• Add adopt tag to install the static GRUB config from tree by @HuijingHei in #945.
