[yocto] [PATCH][meta-intel] grub: remove the dependency on freetype, disable grub-mkfont

[Saul Wold]

Seeing this change reminded me that we really should move grub_1.98 to 
oe-core, is there any objection to this?  Any reason this should not be 
part of oe-core to support general x86_64 machines?

Sau!
