[build] Use dynamic keyboard map by default in UEFI builds

As described in commit 05cb930 ("[build] Extend default configuration
for non-BIOS builds"), the default configuration for EFI needs to
allow for the unfortunate fact that users will not be able to rebuild
the Secure Boot binaries for themselves.

The keyboard map currently defaults to "us" (i.e. no keyboard
remapping) on all platforms.  Switch to using the "dynamic" keyboard
map by default for EFI platforms.

Do not use the "dynamic" keyboard map by default on Linux platforms
(where the input character read by iPXE has already passed through the
host's keyboard mapping) or on RISC-V SBI (where input is expected to
come via a serial port rather than a directly attached keyboard).

iPXE network bootloader

Build Coverity Release

iPXE is the leading open source network boot firmware. It provides a full PXE implementation enhanced with additional features such as:

  • boot from a web server via HTTP or HTTPS,

  • boot from an iSCSI, FCoE, or AoE SAN,

  • control the boot process with a script,

  • create interactive forms and menus.

You can use iPXE to replace the existing PXE ROM on your network card, or you can chainload into iPXE to obtain the features of iPXE without the hassle of reflashing.

iPXE is free, open-source software licensed under the GNU GPL (with some portions under GPL-compatible licences).

You can download the rolling release binaries (built from the latest commit), or use the most recent stable release.
