-------------------------------------+------------------------------
 makebootable needs EFI platform support added.

 Since we can build multiple platforms into Haiku (bios_ia32, efi),
 makebootable needs to be able to handle this.

 src/tools/makebootable/platform

 for EFI, makebootable should:
   * Validate the presence of an EFI GPT partition
   * Ensure it is formatted with the correct filesystem
   * Ensure our EFI loader is placed somewhere relevant within
     (EFI/BOOTX64/bootx64.efi, EFI/HAIKU/haiku_loader.efi, etc)
