Javier Martinez Canillas b8a9f0d1d3 scripts: Add script to switch zipl config to a BootLoaderSpec setup
Add a zipl-switch-to-blscfg script that can be used to switch the zipl
configuration in a system to use the BootLoaderSpec (BLS) config files
to define the IPL sections instead of having them defined in zipl.conf.
