[PATCH] Create a Containerfile with required grub packages for development

[Leo Sandoval via Grub-devel <grub-devel@gnu.org>]

Containers bring the ability to have ready-to-use environments and in
this case a complete Fedora container file is described containing
all required packages for building and testing grub2.

Once users manually build it, they can run the container jump into a
setup ready for development. On the other hand, if users
prefer to use bare metal instead of a containerized environment, it is
still useful to have a file explicitly indicating the required packages.
