Several bootmeth drivers (BLS, EFI, EFI boot manager, FEL) have no
dedicated page under doc/develop/bootstd/. Add developer-focused
documentation for each, following the concise style of the existing
extlinux and pxelinux pages. Each new page covers the discovery and
boot phases, compatible string and CONFIG option. The overview list
is also updated with cross-references.
