The result of read() was stored in an unsigned variable, so the
test for a negative value would never work.
While I'm here, print a better error message for an empty file,
omitting the misleading errno message.

Rather than int flags we ++, use booleans for all command line args.
No functional change intended.

Due to how we're parsing UUIDs, we were disallowing setting, printing or
deleting any UEFI variable with a '-' in it when you attempted to do that
operation with the exact name (wildcard reporting was unaffected). Fix the
parser to loop over all the dashes in the name and only give up when all
possible matches are exhausted.

Add -q/--quiet flag to the command line. With it, errors are not reported at
all. Instead nothing is printed and the exit code is non-zero.

When the DEVICE_PATH is <= 4 that means it's effectively empty. I have
a laptop that has a BIOS that likes to generate these:
8be4df61-93ca-11d2-aa0d-00e098032b8c-Boot2001
0000: 01 00 00 00 04 00 45 00 46 00 49 00 20 00 55 00
0010: 53 00 42 00 20 00 44 00 65 00 76 00 69 00 63 00
0020: 65 00 00 00 7f ff 04 00 52 43
which now decodes as
8be4df61-93ca-11d2-aa0d-00e098032b8c-Boot2001
* EFI USB Device
Empty path
Option:
0000: 52 43
which matches my hand-decode.
Add an extra newline after Option: to make it look nice.
I suspect that these entries really should be VenHw entries instead,
but my ability to change that is NIL, so cope with them as best we can.
efibootmgr(8)'s output is fine and doesn't need adjusting.
Use recent best practices for Copyright form at the top of
the license:
1. Remove all the All Rights Reserved clauses on our stuff. Where we
piggybacked others, use a separate line to make things clear.
2. Use "Netflix, Inc." everywhere.
3. Use a single line for the copyright for grep friendliness.
4. Use date ranges in all places for our stuff.

So
./efivar --fromfile Boot0001.bin --print --load-option
will take the value from Boot0001.bin file and then decode it as if it
were a load-option. This is useful for debugging handling of such
variables that may be hanging the boot for some people.

We started out having Linux compatible libefivar interfaces. This was
in anticipation of porting the GPL'd efibootmgr to FreeBSD via a
port. However, since we need that functionality in the base, that port
isn't going to happened. It also appears that efivar is a private
library that's not used much outside a command line util and
efibootmgr. Reduce compatibility with the Linux version a little by
removing the mode parameter to efi_set_variable (which was unused on
FreeBSD, and not set to something useful in the code we'd
written). Also remove some efi error routines that were never
implemented and existed only to placate early GPL efibootmgr porting
experiments.

Split out asciidump, utf8dump, bindump, and hexdump into a separate
file efiutil.c. Implement new efi_print_load_option for printing out
the EFI_LOADER_OPTION data structure used to specify different options

Many UEFI variables are UCS2 strings (some NUL terminated, others
not). Add --utf8 (-u) to convert UCS2 strings to UTF8 before printing.

Remove language about a=b syntax on the command line. This will not be
implemented due to its limited usefulness. UEFI variables are binary
blobs, on the whole, and a simple work around exists for
strings. Clarify that the new value of the variable is taken from
stdin. Update manual with history.

Exit after printing a message on stderr when we can't get a
