Description

We are using btxld tool for two purposes - to "link" BTX with BIOS loader and to attach version info to boot1 binary (gptzfsboot). The version info does allow installboot to decide if the boot1 on disk will need to be updated or not. As we would like to automate the UEFI boot program management too, the btxld should be adjusted to allow to mange just the version info as EFI app does not use BTX.
