VMWare ESXI 6.5 and above is not compatible with
subformat=monolithicSparse (The default qemu-img convert -O VMDK option).
Monolithic Sparse vmdk can be imported, but issues occur when running
sysupgrade with new images and other tasks that modify the file system
(issues like Kernel panics, reboot loops, sometimes crashing the Host ESXI
box).
This change creates an additional VMDK output file for ESXI that sets the
subformat to monlithicFlat, and the adapter_type to the SCSI lsilogic
controller.
This change existed back on:
25e36d379e
But it looks like the change was removed when refactoring occurred with:

These targets are currently using more or less same SIGNATURE variable
which provides unique partition ID/signature, so it makes sense to
refactor it out into common IMG_PART_SIGNATURE variable which could be
reused by all targets.
This is another step in the direction of reproducible OpenWrt images.

The host tool package qemu is build for the target x86. The installed tool
qemu-img is needed to build vdi or vmdk images. In the image Makefile we
use however the host installed qemu-img command and not the tool from the
buildsystem. This commit force to use the already build qemu-img command
from the openwrt toolchain.

Current squashfs snapshot images are improperly padded by just 128k,
which doesn't correspond with TARGET_ROOTFS_PARTSIZE=128 default config
option, leading to following:
Filesystem Size Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/root 2.5M 2.5M 0 100% /rom
/dev/loop0 85.0K 9.0K 71.0K 11% /overlay

Currently we're producing unusable x86 combined squashfs images
(18.06.1, 18.06.2 and snapshots) as we don't enable TARGET_IMAGES_PAD,
thus providing very small space for the overlay filesystem, leading to
the following with OpenWrt 18.06.1 r7258-5eb055306f images on x86 QEMU:
root@(none):/# mount | egrep 'root|overlay'
/dev/root on /rom type squashfs
/dev/loop0 on /overlay type ext4
overlayfs:/overlay on / type overlay
root@(none):/# df -h | egrep 'root|overlay|Size'
Filesystem Size Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/root 2.5M 2.5M 0 100% /rom
/dev/loop0 113.0K 8.0K 97.0K 8% /overlay
overlayfs:/overlay 113.0K 8.0K 97.0K 8% /
We should rather ensure proper image padding in image generation code
and we shouldn't rely on config options in order to generate usable
images.
So this patch removes TARGET_IMAGES_PAD config option and enforces
padding on combined images.

It was previously added in 546fced, which was part of "intel-microcode:
load as early as possible" series.
Unfortunately the conditionals added to GRUB config caused error on boot,
because on sysupgrade, bootloader is not updated and is left with old
features/modules. Since this module is needed for early microcode load
and transition to this needs to be done step by step, enable the test
module now, so that every newly created image has it already embedded.

VBoxManage is not used and the image is created with proper permisions:

Unreachable config symbols:

No need to define those symbols since x86_64 is subtarget of x86:

In the latest version of grub-mkimage, the prefix option is mandatory.
Not supplying it fails with:
```
Prefix not specified (use the -p option).
```
In grub-2.02-beta2 a DEFAULT_DIRECTORY was defined
in `include/grub/osdep/hostfile_unix.h` as:
```
#if defined (__NetBSD__)
/* NetBSD uses /boot for its boot block. */
# define DEFAULT_DIRECTORY "/"GRUB_DIR_NAME
#else
# define DEFAULT_DIRECTORY "/"GRUB_BOOT_DIR_NAME"/"GRUB_DIR_NAME
#endif
```
Where:
* GRUB_BOOT_DIR_NAME == boot
* GRUB_DIR_NAME == grub
This was used if the -p option was omitted.

This changes the x86 image generation to match x86_64, using the PARTUUID for
the rootfs instead of explicitly configuring the device.
It unbreaks KVM with VirtIO, which uses /dev/vda2 instead of /dev/sda2.

With
.config:CONFIG_X86_GRUB_SERIAL=""
which (AFAICT) is the way to tell GRUB not to use a serial console, in
target/linux/x86/image/Makefile:ifneq ($(CONFIG_X86_GRUB_SERIAL),)
$(CONFIG_X86_GRUB_SERIAL) expands to `""' (a literal double double-quote),
making the condition unconditionally false.
This patch fixes the situation by passing CONFIG_X86_GRUB_SERIAL through
qstrip before testing.
