[PATCH v3 05/11] doc: Add documentation to describe capsule config file format

[Sughosh Ganu]

The UEFI capsule can be generated either through command-line
parameters, or, by specifying those in a config file. Add
documentation to describe the format of the config file.

+Issuing the above make command requires specifying the capsule

+CONFIG_EFI_CAPSULE_CFG_FILE is to be used for specifying the path to
+the config file.
+
+The config file describes the parameters that are used for generating
+one or more capsules. The parameters for a given capsule file are
+specified within curly braces, in the form of "key:value" pairs. All
+the parameters that are currently supported by the mkeficapsule tool
+can be specified through the config file.
+
+The following are some example payload parameters specified through
+the config file.
