In systems where the nvram may have been reset, add
\EFI\BOOT\BOOTx64.EFI to the EFI system partition so that
the image continues to boot. This will be particularly useful
if the NVRAM wasn't written correctly or if the baremetal
server is be simulated on virt and the NVRAM was been reset
on start (as is the case in libvirt).

This patch updates the _install_grub2 function in image.py
so that we use 'mount -t sysfs' instead of bind mounting
the hosts /sys into the chroot.
This resolves issues which can occur with unmounting
the chroot mounts where 'target is busy' errors
may occur when you are debugging things with a serial
console.

The code that is covered in this exception block
does not actually retry three times, so it seems better
to have the message not reference that it does.

This commit adds running 'udevadm settle' after
