eficonfig command reads the all possible UEFI boot options
from 0x0000 to 0xFFFF to construct the menu. This takes too much
time in some environment, especially for the platform using
OP-TEE and RPMB based secure storage.
For example, on Socionext Developerbox, it takes more than 30 seconds
to draw the boot option menu.
To reduce the time to draw the menu, this patch introduces the
maximum UEFI boot option index that eficonfig can manage.
We should avoid deviations from the UEFI specification.
There cannot be more boot options than UEFI variables. Instead of
iterating over Boot0000 to BootFFFF just iterate over all UEFI variables
to collect Boot#### entries using GetNextVariableName(). Afterwards
decide which ones are mentioned in BootOrder.
