Introduce a new config option CONFIG_EFI_SECURE_BOOT_VAR_DISABLE to
allow disabling EFI secure boot when the platform is operating in User
Mode and there is an NV+BS EFI variable called "SecureBootDisable".
Otherwise, keep it enabled by default.

Once SecureBoot mode is enforced, any EFI binary can run only if
it is signed with a trusted key. To do that, you need to install,
at least, PK, KEK and db.
+ Note that SecureBoot mode may no longer be enforced when
+ EFI_SECURE_BOOT_VAR_DISABLE option is enabled.

+ Select this option to allow disabling EFI secure boot when
+ the platform is operating in User Mode (e.g. PK is enrolled)
+ and there is an NV+BS EFI variable called
+ "SecureBootDisable". A platform reset is also required to
+ actually disable it.
