[PATCH 03/12] grub-shell: Only show grub-mkrescue output if it returns an error

[Glenn Washburn <development@efficientek.com>]

The previous behavior ignored an error and the output from grub-mkrescue.
This made it a pain to discover that grub-mkrescue was the reason that tests
which rely on grub-shell were failing.  Even after discovering grub-mkrescue
was the culprit, there was no output to indicate why it was failing.  It
turns out that grub-mkrescue is a thin wrapper around xorriso. So if you do
not have xorriso installed it will fail with an error message about not
being able to find xorriso.

This change will allow grub-mkrescue output to be written to stderr, only if
grub-mkrescue fails.  If grub-mkrescue succeeds, there will be no output
from grub-mkrescue so as not to interfere with the functioning of tests.
This change should have no effect on the running of tests or other uses of
grub-shell as it only modifies the error path.

Also, if grub-mkrescue fails, the script exits early.  Since grub-shell
needs the iso image created by grub-mkresue to boot the qemu instance, a
failure here should be considered fatal.
