The current SLOF boot menu heavily depends on the contents of the
"qemu,boot-list" and "qemu,boot-device"" properties in the device tree,
so that the menu entries either look very strange (when there is no
alias, see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1429832 ) or
are duplicated (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1446018).
A proper boot menu should rather show all available boot devices
instead, so this patch series introduces a new boot menu (written in
C this time) which is independent from the "qemu,boot-list/device"
properties by looking at the available aliases instead. It is now also
possible by selecting the entries with one key stroke only (you don't
have to press RETURN anymore), so this is now hopefully much more user
friendly than the old menu.
