[Libguestfs] [p2v PATCH] virt-p2v-make-kickstart: add packages for making the P2V ISO UEFI-bootable

Including the shim-x64 and grub2-efi-x64-cdboot packages causes livecd-creator to automatically build a UEFI-bootable CD. I didn't modify the dependencies for distros other than the RH family, because: - I checked Debian briefly for any package providing a file ending with "BOOTX64.EFI", and the only hit was irrelevant (it was a systemd file). - Kickstart is RH-specific anyway. Tested with an actual conversion: - Built the ISO with the following livecd-creator and dnf fixes included: - https://github.com/rpm-software-management/dnf/pull/1825 - https://github.com/livecd-tools/livecd-tools/pull/227 - Booted the P2V ISO in UEFI mode on QEMU, against a previously installed (UEFI) RHEL-7.9 guest's disk. - Converted the guest with the help of a virt-v2v conversion server VM, using the QEMU output module. - Successfully booted the converted guest.
