The ubuntu resolute target has an efi-only kernel. By that, the existing
qemuarm64 target that does direct kernel boot cannot boot the image,
leading to the long-standing CI error.

We fix this by providing creating an efi image and provide a
corresponding efiboot cmdline for QEMU for this target on
resolute.
