separate grub-legacy-ec2 from cloud-init

[Scott Moser]

We'd like to separate grub-legacy-ec2 from cloud-init.
There is not really a connection between these two packages.
Attrition is the only reason for their link.

Heres the suggested new grub-legacy-ec2 package:
 https://code.launchpad.net/~smoser/+git/grub-legacy-ec2/+ref/master

[Andy Whitcroft (apw)]

Reviewed the package in New. It has one false lintian error on the source:

    W: grub-legacy-ec2 source: missing-file-from-potfiles-in grub.templates

and a couple of missing manual page warnings for the binaries:

    W: grub-legacy-ec2: binary-without-manpage usr/sbin/grub-set-default
    W: grub-legacy-ec2: binary-without-manpage usr/sbin/grub-set-default-legacy-ec2
    W: grub-legacy-ec2: binary-without-manpage usr/sbin/update-grub-legacy-ec2

We do not appear to have had manuals for them when part of cloud-init, so I guess thats ok.

grub-legacy-ec2 is now in bionic.

This bug was fixed in the package cloud-init - 18.1-35-ge0f644b7-0ubuntu2

---------------
cloud-init (18.1-35-ge0f644b7-0ubuntu2) bionic; urgency=medium

  * debian/: drop grub-legacy-ec2 package, which is now in its own source
    package (LP: #1758420).
