The "autoboot device" and "autoexec script" functionalities in
efi_autoboot.c are unrelated except in that they both need to be
invoked by efiprefix.c before device drivers are loaded.
Split out the autoexec script portions to a separate file to avoid
potential confusion.

When booting iPXE from a filesystem (e.g. a FAT-formatted USB key) it
can be useful to have an iPXE script loaded automatically from the
same filesystem. Compared to using an embedded script, this has the
advantage that the script can be edited without recompiling the iPXE
binary.
For the BIOS version of iPXE, loading from a filesystem is handled
using syslinux (or isolinux) which allows the script to be passed to
the iPXE .lkrn image as an initrd.
For the UEFI version of iPXE, the platform firmware loads the iPXE
.efi image directly and there is currently no equivalent of the BIOS
initrd mechanism.
Add support for automatically loading a file "autoexec.ipxe" (if
present) from the root of the filesystem containing the UEFI iPXE
binary.
A combined BIOS and UEFI image for a USB key can be created using e.g.
./util/genfsimg -o usbkey.img -s myscript.ipxe \
bin-x86_64-efi/ipxe.efi bin/ipxe.lkrn
The file "myscript.ipxe" would appear as "autoexec.ipxe" on the USB
key, and would be loaded automatically on both BIOS and UEFI systems.
