299fd2b772 zipl: fix zipl.conf man page example for secure boot
The secure= option is not supported in the defaultboot section when a
menu is used. It should be placed in the menu section in this case.

19259aeb65 zipl: ship a minimal zipl.conf
Ship a minimal zipl configuration file at /lib/s390-tools/zipl.conf by
default which would help systems using BLS files, without having to
create the traditional /etc/zipl.conf file.

6ea645b345 zipl: add secure boot man page updates
Add zipl and zipl.conf man page updates.

The zipl man page will look like:

       -S <SWITCH> or --secure <SWITCH>
               Control the zIPL secure boot support.  <SWITCH> can take one of three values:

                 auto (default)
                   Write signatures if available and supported by the system.
                 1
                   Signatures are written independent of support indicated by the local
                   system. Also missing signatures for stage 3 and kernel IPL files
                   will result in an error.
                 0
                   No signatures will be written.

The zipl.conf man page will look like:

       secure = auto/1/0 (configuration only)

              Configuration section:
              Control the zIPL secure boot support.  Set this option to one of the following:

                -  auto: Write signatures if available and supported by the system.

                -  1: Signatures are written independent of support indicated by the local system.
		   Also missing signatures for stage 3 and kernel IPL files will result in an error.

                -  0: No signatures will be written.

                   The default value for 'secure' is auto.

d280e5b1fa zipl: Add BootLoaderSpec support
The BootLoaderSpec (BLS) defines a file format for boot configurations,
so bootloaders can parse these files and create their boot menu entries
by using the information provided by them [0].

This allow to configure the boot items as drop-in files in a directory
instead of having to parse and modify a bootloader configuration file.

If the /boot/loader/entries exists and there are BLS files there, then
these are parsed and configuration sections are added without the need
to have these in a zipl.conf file.

A different BLS directory can be specified from the command line using
the --blsdir option.
