efibootmgr: Document -e command line switch
-e env will include `env` in the boot loader. Document that the boot loader appends the `env` to the BootXXXX variable, and will parse it as a series of a=b values to set in the boot loader's environment. These assignments are separated by spaces. The env arg needs to be quoted if more than one env var is to be set (we parse only the next argument on the command line). Sponsored by: Netflix
