efi: pstore: disentangle from deprecated efivars module
The EFI pstore implementation relies on the 'efivars' abstraction, which encapsulates the EFI variable store in a way that can be overridden by other backing stores, like the Google SMI one. On top of that, the EFI pstore implementation also relies on the efivars.ko module, which is a separate layer built on top of the 'efivars' abstraction that exposes the [deprecated] sysfs entries for each variable that exists in the backing store. Since the efivars.ko module is deprecated, and all users appear to have moved to the efivarfs file system instead, let's prepare for its removal, by removing EFI pstore's dependency on it.
