Carve out function efi_clear_screen.
This does not motivate *why* you prefer to not use efi_cout_clear_screen anymore.
A side effect of this is that the screen will not longer be filled with a new background color, leading to lines that are written with that new background but only for the actual text length. Attached a screenshot to visualize this. Was that intended? Not saying it's necessarily critical.

PS: This is with proper console scrolling in place to avoid overwriting. Will send an update of my related patch soon.
