move ESP sync and kernel autoremove snippets to pve-kernel-meta and
introduce a new binary package there, to allow easier sharing with
future PMG versions.
add a new pveesptool for formatting, initializing and refreshing synced
ESPs. various small improvements and cleanups to the hooks as well.
proxmox-ve needs a bump accordingly, see last patch for pve-kernel-meta.
There is probably lots of room for improvement, some areas for potential
follow-ups:
- 'pveesptool mount' and 'umount' commands (for manual configuration,
cleanup, ...)
- 'pveesptool scan' to list ESPs that might be added to the list of
synced ones
- 'pveesptool remove' to remove an ESP from the list (and clean up its
contents?)
- more helpers in the functions file
- handle more edge/error case correctly in zz-pve-efiboot (there are
surely still some missing)
- mktemp or something fancier for mountpoint directory creation, instead
of easy-to-guess hardcoded ones

(especially for the last two points, which should be looked at before the
final release)
