From: Raymund Will <rw@suse.com>

The GRUB emulator is used as a debugging utility but it could also be used
as a user-space bootloader if there is support to boot an operating system.

The Linux kernel is already able to (re)boot another kernel via the kexec
boot mechanism. So the grub-emu tool could rely on this feature and have
linux and initrd commands that are used to pass a kernel, initramfs image
and command line parameters to kexec for booting a selected menu entry.

By default the systemctl kexec option is used so systemd can shutdown all
of the running services before doing a reboot using kexec. But if this is
not present, it fallbacks to executing the kexec user-space tool directly.
