Preload GRUB's NTFS, exFAT and UDF modules
There are claims that some UEFI allegedly natively support NTFS.
Preload the required GRUB modules to support booting from NTFS on such
systems.

Additionally preload the exFAT and UEF modules, because, why not?

configs/*/grub/grub.cfg: search for a .uuid file in /.disk/ and use the volume it's on
Search for `/.disk/%UUID_SEARCH_FILENAME%.uuid` and pass the UUID of the
volume it's on as `archisodevice`. mkarchiso will replace
`%UUID_SEARCH_FILENAME%` with a hardcoded value generated using
`SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH` durring ISO build.

This allows to prepare an UEFI bootable installation medium by simply
copying the directory structure without having to touch `grub.cfg`.

Relying on the volume UUID instead of its LABEL also avoids collisions
of multiple ISOs created in the same month.

Fixes #202

configs/: remove "Copy to RAM" boot entries since it is automatic now
The default is now copytoram=auto which enables copying to RAM when the rootfs image size is less than 4 GiB and free RAM exceeds the rootfs image size + 2 GiB.

See https://gitlab.archlinux.org/mkinitcpio/mkinitcpio-archiso/-/issues/13 and https://gitlab.archlinux.org/mkinitcpio/mkinitcpio-archiso/-/merge_requests/26.

Implements #177.
