Description
In the past, grub's timeout has been cancelled by pressing the 'up' key (in livecdreboot.pm). A rewrite/restructuring of this test split this logic into grub_test.pm
grub_test uses the semantically more correct 'ESC' key to cancel the timeout. On grub2-efi, though, this has the side effect that it does not only cancel the timeout but drops to the grub2 command line interface.
Quite some discussion happened already on
https://github.com/os-autoinst/os-autoinst-distri-opensuse/pull/1047#issuecomment-184180390 (attempting to revert to 'up' for the time being)
grub2-efi's behavior is under investigation in https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=966701 (should ESC really drop to the CLI?)
