Standardizing boot loader entry format
{configs/releng/efiboot/loader/entries/archiso-x86_64-{cd,usb}.conf,configs/releng/syslinux/archiso_{pxe,sys}.cfg}:
Standardizing the boot loader entry format by switching all entries to the form:
"Arch Linux install medium (<CARCH>[, <PROPERTY>])".
This removes the distinction between "CD" and "USB" when booting in UEFI "el-torito" (as the information is not useful).
Changing some of the syslinux help text as well to reflect this change. This also drops the specific <CARCH> from the
syslinux help text as it is duplicated information.

Closes #24

Removing custom UEFI shell boot loader configs
configs/releng/build.sh:
Copying the edk2-shell based Shell_Full.efi to the root of the iso/ efi
image as 'shellx64.efi' is automatically picked up by certain hardware
and by systemd-boot.
This makes all custom UEFI shell configuration obsolete.

configs/releng/efiboot/loader/entries/uefi-shell-*.conf:
Removing obsolete custom UEFI shell boot loader configuration.

Closes #14

Fixing default bootloader menu selection.
configs/releng/efiboot/loader/loader.conf:
The 'default' bootloader selection of systemd-boot is based on a glob
pattern. The previous pattern was not sufficient to select anything,
which is why it is now made explicit (pointing to archiso-x86_64.conf).

Using edk2-shell for UEFI shell
configs/releng/build.sh:
Instead of downloading UDK2018 based edk2 UEFI shell, use the Shell
binaries from the edk2-shell package.
This effectively makes the use of EFI shell v1 obsolete.

configs/releng/efiboot/loader/entries/uefi-shell-v*:
Renaming UEFI shell entries to match the packaged edk2-shell based UEFI
shell binaries.

configs/releng/build.sh:
Renaming the systemd-boot bootloader entries for UEFI shell (normal and
full version) to reflect their file names, which are derived from the
binary names in the edk2-shell package.
Copying the edk2-shell based UEFI shell binaries for normal efiboot and
.iso based "el-torito" efiboot mode.

docs/README.build:
Adding edk2-shell to the requirements in the documentation, as the
package is now used to provide UEFI shell.
