board/pc: drop unused grub-efi.cfg file
Following commit fee29b05bb7db25e37c8a5175ce00dc712554edf
("configs/pc_x86_64_efi: use a GPT partition table"),
board/pc/grub-efi.cfg is no longer used anywhere: the
post-image-efi-gpt.sh script generates the grub configuration.
Also, since post-image-efi-gpt.sh generates a grub configuration file
that uses the root filesystem partition UUID as the root= kernel
argument, the instructions in the readme.txt file to tweak root= from
/dev/sda2 to /dev/vda2 is no longer relevant. This was noted in the
commit log of fee29b05bb7db25e37c8a5175ce00dc712554edf:
The root filesystem location is passed to the kernel by a partition
UUID, so it is possible to boot on QEMU, directly from the disk image,
or dump the image to a physical device.
Fixes: #11841
