Use standard boot instead of the distro boot scripts.

As per a somewhat recent discussion about this for the rockchip SoCs, I think we want BOOTSTD_FULL instead of BOOTSTD_DEFAULT. Even though I think that BOOTSTD_FULL is a bit too chatty at the moment.
I noticed and added BOOTSTD_FULL to the defconfig downstream. To solve the chattyness we could override BOOTCMD to "bootflow scan -b" in the defconfig.
That also solves the issue that BOOTSTD_DEFAULTS doesn't run the EFI bootmgr (which does happen with distroboot). Although Heinrich has a diff to fix that.
I've seen but I think for interactive use BOOTSTD_FULL is still the better choice. The full bootstd commands are helpful for booting from a non-default partition.
I'll resend with BOOTSTD_FULL and will think whether to change BOOTCMD in apple_m1_defconfig or in Kconfig. I don't think it makes much sense to list the boot methods by default before boot.
