Although U-Boot supports capsule update on-disk, it's lack of support for
SetVariable at runtime prevents applications like fwupd from using it.
In order to perform the capsule update on-disk the spec says that the OS
must copy the capsule to the \EFI\UpdateCapsule directory and set a bit in
the OsIndications variable. The firmware then checks for the
EFI_OS_INDICATIONS_FILE_CAPSULE_DELIVERY_SUPPORTED bit in OsIndications
variable, which is set by the submitter to trigger processing of the
capsule on the next reboot.
Let's add a config option which ignores the bit and just relies on the
capsule being present. Since U-Boot deletes the capsule while processing
it, we won't end up applying it multiple times.
Note that this is allowed for all capsules. In the future, once
authenticated capsules are fully supported, we can limit the functionality
to those only.
