[PATCH v2 5/9] efi_loader: use short-form DP for load options
Heinrich Schuchardt

From: Heinrich Schuchardt <xypron.glpk at gmx.de>
The GUID of partitions is sufficient for identification and will stay
constant in the lifetime of a boot option. The preceding path of the
device-path may change due to changes in the enumeration of devices.
Therefore it is preferable to use the short-form of device-paths in load
options. Adjust the 'efidebug boot add' command accordingly.

v2:
support both short and long form device paths
split off exporting efi_dp_shorten() into a separate patch
