Subject: skip legacy Microsoft bootloader on UEFI system
References: bnc#775610
Patch-Mainline: no
Sometimes Windows installs both legacy BIOS and UEFI bootloaders.
Attempt to chainload legacy bootloader on UEFI system fails. Skip
adding legacy bootloader in this case.
TODO: this probably should be implemented as runtime check. But it
does the right thing in majority of cases. If mixed legacy/UEFI
boot will be used frequently, it can be revisited.
