Adds a gummiboot class similar to grub-efi class and makes the necessary
changes so it can be used for live/hddimg images as well.
One can set EFI_PROVIDER = "gummiboot" in local.conf to use gummiboot instead of grub-efi.
Gummiboot requires some kernel options that are not enabled by default, so one has to build
with KERNEL_FEATURES_append = " cfg/efi-ext".
The install scripts have been updated too, keeping the old behaviour around,
but accounting for the new boot loader config files (if they exist).
It can be argued that the installer and bootimg are a bit wierd and not necessarily correct,
but I wanted to have the exact same behviour with gummiboot.
With the default EFI_PROVIDER = "grub-efi" nothing changes, everthing should be just as before.
I've tested live boot, install and normal boot on:
- FRI2
- genericx86-64 on NUC
with:
EFI_PROVIDER = "gummiboot"
KERNEL_FEATURES_append = " cfg/efi-ext"
in local.conf.

Fixes [YOCTO #5233]
Modeled after Chen Qi's fix to [YOCTO #3924] from oe-core commit:

init-install.sh: remove unnecessary udev rules file to avoid error messages
/etc/udev/scripts/mount.sh is removed by init-install-efi.sh, but the
udev rules file which specifies the invocation of this script is not
removed, thus causing the error message during a live install:
/etc/udev/scripts/mount.sh: No such file or directory
The /etc/udev/rules/automount.rules no longer works once the mount.sh
script is removed. Remove it to avoid the error message.

Fixes [YOCTO #5237]
The current grub.cfg manipulation depends on an existing root=
parameter. If this doesn't exist, the correct root= parameter will not
be added.
Instead, remove any existing root= parameters and add the correct one
explicitly.

This was not the correct fix for this issues, it turns out that
base-files package was getting installed un-intentionally when
rpm-postinsts was split out. The base-files recipe lays down the
link that caused the cat failure.

The install boot option was giving the following error when one tried to
install the live image on a permanent storage of a BSP.
cat: write error Invalid argument
Installation image failed
sh: can't access tty: job control turned off
Further digging into the issue, found out that the install script was trying
to do this:
cat /proc/mounts > /etc/mtab
And in the base-files recipe the /etc/mtab is made soft link to /proc/mounts.
So the cat command was failing to write on /etc/mtab. As the contents of
the /proc/mounts is already reflected in the /etc/mtab file due to the
symlink-ing, there is no need for this step to recreate /etc/mtab in the
install script. So just removing this unnecessary step, which solves the
install issue of the live images.
Fixes this bug:

[YOCTO #1919]
Create a basic EFI installer script modeled after the existing installer
and add it to a new initramfs-live-install-efi recipe. Update the
init-live.sh script to distinguish between LABEL=install and
LABEL=install-efi and select the appropriate script. Add the efi
installer to core-image-minimal-initramfs.
Update grub-efi.bbclass to use "LABEL=install-efi" when it detects a
label of "install". This is clearly not ideal, but a proper fix would
involve decoupling the LABELS assignment from the image-live.bbclass
usage of SYSLINUX_LABELS. We should be able to address that in a
follow-on clean-up series.
V2: Include missing initramfs-live-install-efi_1.0.bb
V3: Rebase after Radu's console_params fix
