Ucode updates correct problems with the processor. Without this (or a firmware update),
some machines fail to work in a stable manner. Make sure that the installation is smooth
by providing the ucode on the live system.
(While we're at it, sort packages.both alphabetically.)
Tested only under QEMU using OVMF SecureBoot enabled firmware plus lockdown-ms.
Both loader.efi (gummiboot) and vmlinuz.efi should be hashed before boot in secure mode.

The new mirror= option takes a mirror URL and creates a new mirrorlist.
When setting mirror=auto, the mirror is taken from archiso_http_srv in
order to keep using the mirror selected in the netboot menu.

* This scripts, now runs only in x86_64.
* build.sh does not require arguments to run (no more build, clean, purge).
* /usr/share split is not done anymore: there are some differences between two arches. (ISO size +60MiB)
* /usr/lib/modules split is not done anymore: this was never enabled officially in aitab.
Tested and works fine. Maybe some small cosmetic changes needed.

Simplify code path.
Previously in "dual" mode is executed when arch=i686, i686 was used as primary source.
This does not change current behaviour of building "dual" on x86_64.

A live system should never alter the host system in any way. This includes setting the bios clock.
E.g. if the user runs his system in local time we would do the wrong thing here.

Makes an efiboot.img (FAT16) for "El Torito" (additional).
Under an EFI-system, implies that this .ISO works only if is used
as "CD-ROM/DVD-ROM" not in ISO-HYBRID-MBR mode.
If you want, an EFI-ready USB-key, just unpack this "<ISO>/EFI/efiboot.img" (FAT16) to
"<USB-key-FAT-formatted>/EFI" then copy "<ISO>/arch" and setup the filesystem label.
An aditional EFI shell is provided with an startup script for automatic booting
until EFI_STUB supports "linux.conf" to pass boot parms to kernel.
Anyway I think that is a good idea to keep this shell, so can customize boot parms,
or for doing other tasks on systems without an EFI-shell.
RFCv1: Initial efiboot.img build with vmlinuz.efi (Linux with EFI_STUB enabled)
and archiso.img (initramfs).
RFCv2: Use an startup.nsh with EFI-Shell 2.0 (generated from build.sh) for automatic boot.
RFCv3: Use and older EFI-Shell 1.0 instead of 2.0, since not all UEFI-systems
are compatible with 2.3+ specs.
RFCv4: The script "startup.nsh" improved by Keshav P R, using a for-loop
(see notes below from original commit), now that has more than 1-line,
I moved it to an independent file and is parsed by build.sh.

[configs/releng] Search in all existing UEFI FS mountpoints for archiso efistub kernel file
There is no guarantee that the efistub kernel will always be in fs0:
(similar to the case inside linux OS where the sda, sdb confusion exists,
hence the need for UUIDs), especially when USB (instead os CD/ISO) is
used for booting.
Hence loop through all possible fs mountpoints (in UEFI) in startup.nsh
and try to launch the first mountpoint that contains the archiso files.
Cd's into the fs%m:\EFI\archiso directory also may remove future issues
with efistub's linux.conf where the efistub might have problems
identifying the directory from which the kernel was launched.
Also add an helpful echo message showing the user the UEFI PATH to the
archiso kernel file being launched by startup.nsh .
Hopefully this should work in both CD and USB. Tested in Tianocore
UDK/EDK2 DuetPkg X64 UEFI 2.3.1 firmware with EdkShellBinPkg's Shell.

* For installed packages on live-enviroment use mkarchiso pkglist command.
* For packages in [core] repo in core.iso, make a list of them during repo generation.
It uses the same format like done by pkglist command: <repo>/<package>-<version>
(anyway repo is always core in this case).
