Add a script to explicitly handle multiple Surface kernel versions being installed in parallel, sorting kernels by timestamp and choosing the latest one. Further, add support for rEFInd by updating the vmlinuz file timestamp to ensure it's always seen as the last modified file (which will be picked by rEFInd as the "default" kernel in that directory).

Fedora Default Kernel Updater
This is a small systemd service and path unit that makes sure that the linux-surface kernel is always booted by default on Fedora.
The out of the box behaviour is that the newest kernel will be booted by default. This means that if the default kernel is ahead of the surface kernel, you have to go into GRUB and change the selection every time.
Installation
$ sudo dnf install /usr/sbin/grubby
$ sudo cp default-kernel.{path,service} /etc/systemd/system/
$ sudo cp default-kernel.sh /usr/local/bin/default-kernel
$ sudo chmod 755 /usr/local/bin/default-kernel
$ sudo systemctl daemon-reload
$ sudo systemctl enable --now default-kernel.path
