board/pc: drop unused grub-efi.cfg file

Following commit fee29b05bb
("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 fee29b05bb:

    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

Emulation in qemu (UEFI)
========================
1. Edit grub-efi.cfg
Since the driver will show up in the virtual machine as /dev/vda,
change board/pc/grub-efi.cfg to use root=/dev/vda2 instead of
root=/dev/sda2. Then rebuild grub2 and the image.
2. Run the emulation with:
