[PATCH] make search faster by first trying without module autoloading

Hello. When search encounters an unknown filesystem or filesystem
without partition it triggers fs module autoload which takes
noticeable time. To improve the situation I propose (after discussing
with Robert Millan) to first search without autoloading modules if we
need to find only one device (with --set ) and retry with autoloading
if without autoloading the search failed. Additionally I modify
grub-mkconfig to load correct module manually before issuing search to
decrease booting time if filesystem is different that our boot one.
