The goal of this patch set is to put the EFI ISO boot method on par
with the ISO PCBIOS boot method. This also allows for the creation of
a single ISO image which can boot in "legacy boot" mode or EFI boot
mode.
In order to make this possible the cdrtools needed an update to the
very latest and this brings in an license change. Given that change
it was not entirely clear to me if we needed to leave the older
package around. I opted to remove the older package recipe since
there was no clean way to fail in the case you wanted to build EFI
boot media.
The bbnote that was previously in the bootimg.bbclass about EFI only
media being untested was a bit of an understatement, as the images
would not even build without errors due to the call to isohybrid. I
removed any such warnings because that path has been fully vetted now.
Cheers,
Jason.
