Please wait a minute. Personally, I don't want grub_file_open to decompress a 
content automatically. The name should stand for what it does. That was why I 
named grub_file_open and grub_gzfile_open like this. This was really one of 
what I didn't like in GRUB Legacy.

If you want to have a function to open any kind of compressed file, please add 
something else (e.g. grub_compressed_file_open).
