bootstd: Allow bootmeths to be marked as global
The current way of handling things like EFI bootmgr is a bit odd, since
that bootmeth handles selection of the bootdev itself. VBE needs to work
the same way, so we should support it properly.
Add a flag that indicates that the bootmeth is global, rather than being
invoked on each bootdev. Provide a helper to read a bootflow from the
bootmeth.
