The tool initially just measured the boot phase, but was subsequently
extended to measure file system and machine IDs, too. At AllSystemsGo
there were request to add more, and make the tool generically
accessible.
Hence, let's rename the binary (but not the pcrphase services), to make
clear the tool is not just measureing the boot phase, but a lot of other
things too.
The tool is located in /usr/lib/ and still relatively new, hence let's
just rename the binary and be done with it, while keeping the unit names
stable.
While we are at it, also move the tool out of src/boot/ and into its own
src/pcrextend/ dir, since it's not really doing boot related stuff
anymore.
ispell made some suggestions which I applied.

The article "a" goes before consonant sounds and "an" goes before vowel
sounds. This commit changes an to a for UKI, UDP, UTF-8, URL, UUID, U-Label, UI
and USB, since they start with the sound /ˌjuː/.
Since mkosi is now smart enough to drop the caches when the list of
packages changes, let's enable Incremental= mode by default to ensure
a good experience for anyone new to hacking on systemd with mkosi.
ImportCredential= takes a credential name and searches for a matching
credential in all the credential stores we know about it. It supports
globs which are expanded so that all matching credentials are loaded.
