[Bug 428443] [NEW] There should be a way to hide the menu in os-prober

[Agostino Russo]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: grub2

In some cases, it might be desirable to hide the boot menu even if other
OS are discovered. For instance in Wubi case, the grub menu is shown
after the windows one, so it becomes confusing.

GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT could be used to specify that the menu has to be
hidden or possibly some other variable could be used to that effect.
