bootmenu: add removable media entries
UEFI specification requires booting from removal media using a architecture-specific default image name such as BOOTAA64.EFI. This commit adds the removable media entries into bootmenu, so that user can select the removable media and boot with default image. The bootmenu automatically enumerates the possible bootable media devices supporting EFI_SIMPLE_FILE_SYSTEM_PROTOCOL, add it as new UEFI boot option(BOOT####) and update BootOrder variable. This automatically generated UEFI boot option has the dedicated guid in the optional_data to distinguish it from the UEFI boot option user adds manually. This optional_data is removed when the efi bootmgr loads the selected UEFI boot option. This commit also provides the BOOT#### variable maintenance feature. Depending on the system hardware setup, some devices may not exist at a later system boot, so bootmenu checks the available device in each bootmenu invocation and automatically removes the BOOT#### variable corrensponding to the non-existent media device.
