fallback: show a countdown menu before reset
Some machines with the faulty firmware may keep booting the default boot
path instead of the boot option we create. To avoid the infinite reset
loop, this commit introduce a countdown screen before fallback resets the
system, so the user can interrupt the system reset and choose to boot
the restored boot option. The "Always continue boot" option creates a
BS+RT+NV variable, FB_NO_REBOOT, to make fallback boot the first boot
option afterward without asking. The user can revert the behavior by
removing the variable.
