Update KRNL-5788 for grsecurity (#178)
* If grsec installed, build FINDKERNEL from uname -r
When running a grsecurity-patched custom kernel, the /vmlinuz link is often missing. If this link is missing, and grsecurity is installed, then we can calculate the location of FINDKERNEL with the words "linux-image-", plus the output of "uname -r".
* Suggest manually checking kernel if grsec installed
We can't rely on the apt-cache output when running grsecurity. This is because apt-cache can't tell us if we're running an up-to-date kernel, when it's a custom kernel with grsecurity. Instead of confirming that the kernel is OK, we instead should remind the auditor to double-check themselves.
