Fix grub config path default
Grub2 looks for files in different paths depending on the boot mode
of the binary. Previously the grub_config_path setting was defaulted
to the path used exclusively for BIOS booting, which meant anyone
using it had to override the setting. Now, we've set the default
to the default for UEFI booting, and the world should be a happier,
and less override filled place.
