Fix historical oversight regarding GRUB Argon2id

Patrick Steinhardt did the original work, importing PHC Argon2id
into GRUB; this fact was unintentionally excluded from the
Libreboot documentation.

Ax333l imported it into GRUB on the AUR, and Nicholas Johnson later
rebased it for GRUB 2.12, for use by the Libreboot project.

Credit where credit is due. The principle of the matter is that
I apologise for this oversight. It has now been corrected.
