Reinstalling grub2-common does not fix the problem.

This is very strange.
zz-update-grub is just a normal dpkg conffile. We don't do anything
special with it.
And according to our git, it wast last changed 2021.

I guess to fix that with dpkg you would need to completely purge the
package and then reinstall.

dpkg doesn't reinstall removed conffiles by default (it interprets that as a deliberate user change), but you can override that using --force-confmiss.
