(LP: #1911676) * Improve immediate configuration handling (LP: #1871268) - Do not immediately configure m-a: same packages in lockstep - Ignore failures from immediate configuration. This does not change the actual installation ordering - we never passed the return code to the caller and installation went underway anyway if it could be ordered at a later stage, this just removes spurious after-the-fact errors.

LP: #1907085 * rhboot-f34-make-exit-take-a-return-code.patch, rhboot-f34-dont-use-int-for-efi-status.patch: allow grub to exit non-zero under EFI, this should allow falling back to the next BootOrder BootEntry. LP: #1865515 * rhboot-f34-tcp-add-window-scaling-support.patch: speed up netboot transfer speed.
