With the recent changes to the installer [0] we should adapt the documentation
to include a short chapter on bootloaders to address the 2 ways of editing the
kernel command line.

I would be grateful for feedback if the phrasing makes sense to people who did
not occupy themselves with the intricasies of bootloader recently ;)

Once merged and deployed online we should also adapt the relevant wiki-pages and
link them to the new chapter.

After a quick search of the wiki the following list of pages might profit from
an update (mostly as a reminder to myself which pages need updating, but also
so that others can add pages I missed):
https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/ZFS:_Tips_and_Tricks
https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Recover_From_Grub_Failure
https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Serial_Terminal
https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Cloud-Init_FAQ
https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Booting_a_ZFS_root_file_system_via_UEFI

I was wondering whether we want to make the sysadmin chapter available for
reading on the command-line (e.g. by creating a manpage out of it, or by
copying it to /usr/share/doc/pve-docs as plain-text) - then we could refer to
the information also in man-pages.
