351de38e4b bootctl: make 'random-seed' handle inability to write system token EFI variable gracefully
Apparently some firmwares don't allow us to write this token, and refuse
it with EINVAL. We should normally consider that a fatal error, but not
really in the case of "bootctl random-seed" when called from the
systemd-boot-system-token.service since it's called as "best effort"
service after boot on various systems, and hence we shouldn't fail
loudly.

Similar, when we cannot find the ESP don't fail either, since there are
systems (arch install ISOs) that carry a boot loader capable of the
random seed logic but don't mount it after boot.

Fixes: #13603

2536752dda Rename "system-options" to "systemd-efi-options"
This makes the naming more consistent: we now have
bootctl systemd-efi-options,
$SYSTEMD_EFI_OPTIONS
and the SystemdOptions EFI variable.

(SystemdEFIOptions would be redundant, because it is only used in the context
of efivars, and users don't interact with that name directly.)

bootctl is adjusted to use 2sp indentation, similarly to systemctl and other
programs.

Remove the prefix with the old name from 'bootctl systemd-efi-options' output,
since it's redundant and we don't want the old name anyway.

e1fac8a68a Move the Commands section above Options section
For executables which take a verb, we should list the verbs first, and
then options which modify those verbs second. The general layout of
the man page is from general description to specific details, usually
Overview, Commands, Options, Return Value, Examples, References.

aa467bcae1 bootctl: do not allow -x and -p to be used together
-x already prints the path to ESP in some circumstances, and allowing
both to be printed seems confusing.

3a54a15760 man: use same header for all files
The "include" files had type "book" for some raeason. I don't think this
is meaningful. Let's just use the same everywhere.

$ perl -i -0pe 's^..DOCTYPE (book|refentry) PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.[25]//EN"\s+"http^<!DOCTYPE refentry PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.5//EN"\n  "http^gms' man/*.xml

8cbb7d8783 efi: allow ESP validity checks to be turned off
let's add an env var for this, as this really shouldn't be a top-level
feature, as it turning off the validity checks certainly isn't
advisable.

fdbbee37d5 man: drop unused <authorgroup> tags from man sources
Docbook styles required those to be present, even though the templates that we
use did not show those names anywhere. But something changed semi-recently (I
would suspect docbook templates, but there was only a minor version bump in
recent years, and the changelog does not suggest anything related), and builds
now work without those entries. Let's drop this dead weight.

Tested with F26-F29, debian unstable.
