tools/pygrub: Remove unnecessary hypercall
There's a hypercall being issued in order to determine whether PV64 is
supported, but since Xen 4.3 that's strictly true so it's not required.
Plus, this way we can avoid mapping the privcmd interface altogether in the
depriv pygrub.
This is part of XSA-443 / CVE-2023-34325
