gummiboot hasn't been supported upstream or by Clear Linux for an age,
and due to format bumps no compatibility is required with it, thus it
can be completely removed from source.
goofiboot, the fork of gummiboot, was initially created to address concerns
in systemd-boot in their tooling. However, the concerns were mitigated by
opting to entirely bypass their tooling, and clr-boot-manager absorbed all
safety and distribution support that was part of libnica and goofiboot.
At this point, both of the legacy bootloaders are safe to be nuked from
orbit and are no longer used in CBM-using distributions.

This change is designed to make it simpler to maintain clr-boot-manager
by switching to the much easier meson build system. Care is taken to
preserve the original functionality, but this will allow us to avoid
repeated issues of "failed distcheck", etc.
Additionally, a new test entry point is now included for Travis, to ensure
all relevant codepaths are properly tested. This now enables us to trivially
merge multiple runs into a single coverage report so that we can test the
code base in various "deployments".
To alleviate the issue of distributing without a `make distcheck` target,
this change vendors the `git-archive-all.sh` script into `scripts/` and
provides a port of the `budgie-desktop` `mkrelease.sh` script to quickly
and easily create a signed distribution tarball straight from git, along
with the submodules (i.e. nica).
Lastly, we'll only build the bootvar support + systemd-shim when we've
actually selected this bootloader, to ensure the project can still be built
without needing gnu-efi/efivar.
