v0.5.9: drop --location=none from bootloader directive

Browse source 
Auto-install round 4 reached emergency dracut shell post-reboot:

  Warning: /dev/disk/by-uuid/ecbd65ba-... does not exist
  Generating "/run/initramfs/rdsosreport.txt"
  Entering emergency mode.

Root cause: `bootloader --location=none` in our generated kickstart
literally tells anaconda DO NOT INSTALL GRUB. Earlier reviewer agent
suggested `--location=none` thinking it meant "auto-detect EFI/BIOS",
but that's wrong — none means none.

Fix: drop --location entirely. Anaconda picks correct mode based on
detected disk layout (GPT-EFI → grub2-efi-x64, GPT-BIOS → grub2-pc).

Without GRUB written, the rebooted VM's UEFI firmware fell back to
loading initramfs straight from somewhere, but cmdline lacked
rd.luks.uuid= → couldn't find the encrypted root → emergency shell.
