This commit supports the menu-driven UEFI boot option addition.
User can select the block device volume having
efi_simple_file_system_protocol and select the file corresponding
to the Boot#### variable. Then user enter the label of the BOOT####
variable in utf8.

This patch creates unexpected behavior:
In the console I entered:
setenv bootmenu_0 foo=echo foo
setenv bootmenu_1 bar=echo bar
bootmenu 20
Nothing here relates to UEFI but the menu shows:
foo
bar
UEFI Boot Manager Maintenance

Please, don't show 'UEFI Boot Manager Maintenance' if we are not in the
boot manager.
Not sure what you mean with this. The "bootefi bootmgr" command
simply looks at EFI variables and immediately exits if "BootOrder"
isn't set. So the EFI varaibles need to be modified beforehands.
Do you mean that 'UEFI Boot Manager Maintenance' should only be
included in the menu if any "Boot####" EFI variables exist (either
because they have been explicitly set or because we have generated
them for the "removable media" device paths)?
The bootmenu command can be used in many contexts. Not all are related to
booting.
I am still not sure the meaning of "don't show 'UEFI Boot Manager
Maintenance' if we are not in the boot manager."
What do you mean "in the boot manager"?
The bootmenu command is used to show a generic menu. It should only show
the menu items selected via the bootmenu_* variables or parameters of
the bootmenu command.
With CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_MENU_SHOW=y a special menu is shown instead of the
normal console countdown. Here you can show auto-generated entries.

The bootmenu already supports to enumerate the UEFI boot options,
so it is some kind of boot manager.
