Changes for complying to EFI spec §3.5.1.1

Boot variables can be automatically generated during a removable
media is probed. At the same time, unused boot variables will be
detected and removed.

Changes in v2
- Ignore EFI_NOT_FOUND returned from
  efi_bootmgr_update_media_device_boot_option which means no boot
  options scanned.
Changes in v3
- Split the patch into moving and renaming functions and
  individual patches for each changed functionality
Changes in v4
- Revert the change of introducing a bool parameter when updating
  the boot option. Use short-form of device path by default
