[PATCH v8 3/4] Boot var automatic management for removable medias

Changes for complying to EFI spec §3.5.1.1
'Removable Media Boot Behavior'.
Boot variables can be automatically generated during a removable
media is probed. At the same time, unused boot variables will be
detected and removed.
Please note that currently the function 'efi_disk_remove' is being
invoked during exiting U-Boot and booting an OS - that is why we
don't add the boot variables management inside 'efi_disk_remove'.
