testcases for UEFI

Description

We have no testcases for UEFI which caused a major fail in 17.10. Since KVM and VirtualBox both appear to support UEFI mode, there's no reason we should need hardware testing, which means that general required testcases will need to be added.

So here's our todo:

  • confirm UEFI works with virtual machines
  • write testcases
  • get testcases merged
  • use testcases on tracker

{C1} …but T4: Fix the missing UEFI packages could push that up.

Started discussion on how to best deal with this, as it's a problem ultimately affecting every image.

Dropped the whole LVM/encryption thing, at least from this task. If there are issues with those, that should be a separate task.

Two general UEFI/BIOS testcases have been merged. It's up to you @tsimonq2 to get them in the tracker.
