Sync memtest86+ 5.31b+dfsg-4 (main) from Debian unstable (main)

[Fantu]

Please sync memtest86+ 5.31b+dfsg-4 (main) from Debian unstable (main)

Explanation of the Ubuntu delta and why it can be dropped:
  * No-change rebuild to build packages with zstd compression.
  * Close FD 3 when invoking update-grub (LP: #1876506)
  * Merge from Debian unstable. Remaining changes:
    - Only run update-grub in the postrm on remove/purge.
    - Drop the multiboot image from the GRUB menu for now, since it's
      experimental and has known problems detecting all memory on some
      systems at the moment.
    - Do not update grub configuration, if running in container, or
      update-grub not present, or grub config has not been previously
      generated.
    - Support localization of GRUB menu entries.
    - Don't present the GRUB menu option on EFI systems, since it won't work.

These changes was merged into latest debian versions,
something was changed/improved.
I saw many report (on LP) of upgrade issue (on older version in ubuntu),
I don't saw similar in debian, on ubuntu I tested upgrade only upgrading
from latest version in few tests without found issue.

[Brian Murray (brian-murray)]

I've gone ahead and sync'ed this, thanks!

[Fantu (fantonifabio)]

thanks, as you can saw memtest86+ is not orphan anymore (I'm the new maintainer) and a packaging git on salsa was added (https://salsa.debian.org/debian/memtest86plus), if changes/improvements/fixes are needed try to open an MR on debian git or post a patch in debian bugreport and if it is ok I'll apply it in debian directly instead do and maintain an ubuntu specific patch/version when not really needed, so I suppose it would save time and eventually improve the package in debian as well.

[Robie Basak (racb)]

Thank you for looking after your package in Ubuntu! Please do keep contacting us in #ubuntu-devel on Libera if you need anything, and we'll try to unblock you.
