Patch to support ChooseMedia step in auto-install interactiveSteps

A series of small fixes and enhancements.

This first one causes the installer to show the Choose Media screen during an auto-install if ChooseMedia is present in $::o->{interactiveSteps}. I'm using this to allow the user to use the GUI when building Live ISOs (as there's been a request to make draklive easier to use).

Patch to fix errors when installing network drivers

This second one fixes the multiple

Use of uninitialized value $name in hash element at /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.22.2/x86_64-linux-thread-multi/URPM.pm line 40

messages that are output near the end of the package installation step.

Patch to remove leftover debug output

This third one eliminates the multiple

chroot /mnt /bin/systemctl --no-legend --no-pager --full list-unit-files

messages output during the Networking step. These are particularly annoying as they aren't terminated with a new line. I assume these are left over from debugging - if they are wanted, they should be output to the log.

Patch to allow drakboot to detect a 32-bit UEFI bootloader

And one more. The installer can already install GRUB2 on a 32-bit UEFI system, but drakboot doesn't detect it because the bootloader file name is different.

Unless there are any objections, I will push this series of patches to cauldron later this week.
