grub2: workaround parallel build failure by building .po files sequentially

Without the change `grub2` build occasionally fails as:

    https://hydra.nixos.org/log/h04imslmgy9l33z6xxsaf9v4svqsc3n2-grub-2.12-rc1.drv

    $ msgmerge --update  --lang=de de.po grub.pot
    $ msgmerge --update  --lang=de de.po grub.pot
    ...
    de.po:745: end-of-file within string
    de.po:745: missing 'msgstr' section

Here `msgmerge --update` attempts to update `de.po` from two parallel
`make` calls when translation updates are happening.

The change works around `de.po` stomping bu regenerating translations
sequentially.
