Checking the existence /sys/firmware/efi as it might appear
sometimes in BIOS installs if the BIOS configuration is not
proper. Checking for the EFI partition is the safest method
to veryfy the install type.

debian package with json support provides the binary through this path, update it.

The json functionality proposed upstream might be merged one day
in efibootmgr so deploying a fork would not be needed anymore.
This change aims to ease the migration once that day comes.

Add UEFI related utilities inside a new utility module: uefi.py
_check_efibootmgr_json
======================
Check if the system efibootmgr executable supports JSON output. This is
a private function used only by other functions from uefi.py.
is_uefi_supported
=================
Check if the system supports UEFI firmware.
run_efibootmgr_json
===================
Runs efibootmgr with json output support. Return the JSON output as a
Python dict.
efibootmgr_create_bootentry
===========================
Create nvram boot entry. This bootentry is usually later set to boot
next just once via "BootNext" nvram variable.
efibootmgr_delete_bootentry
===========================
Delete a nvram boot entry. Used to avoid duplicates when booting the
same disk and partition from a given client.
efibootmgr_bootnext
===================
Set nvram "BootNext" variable to a given boot entry so after client
reboot, PXE is not executed and the given boot entry takes precedence.
Add dependency with efibootmgr version >= 18, and efibootmgr JSON output
which is currently out of tree from util-linux repo.
