SWITCH!

We can switch Cauldron now, to get massive tests, now that KDM knows it.

I feel it is specially important that drakboot, gdm and kdm work nicely with 
it (ie. no regression).

- Test also multiboot with Ubuntu and Fedora (auto-detection)

And still keep GRUB1 till Mageia 3, to have a simple go back avalaible for 
people who will have problems with GRUB2.
