Michael Turek b32750f5c4 Install grub to PReP partition when prep_boot_part_uuid is provided
Installs the grub bootloader to the PreP Boot partition when the
prep_boot_partition_uuid is provided. This is required when
booting a partition image locally on ppc64* systems.

This change also passes the cpu_arch along to work_on_disk so
that the PReP partition is created when partitioning disks for
local boot on ppc64* systems,

If a PReP boot partition is created, and the machine being deployed to is
of ppc64le architecture, the grub2 bootloader will be installed directly
there. This enables booting partition images locally on ppc64* hardware.
Using this feature requires ``ironic-lib`` version 2.14 as support to
create the PReP partition was introduced there.
