We enlarge the boot partition to follow the kernel image size increase and
update the documentation.

- Bump kernel to version 5.11.16.
We remove the hardcoded ttyAMA0 and rely on the firmware to discover our
console. This enables serial console on systems, which do not have an Arm
pl011 UART.
We switch to GPT disklabel and discover our root filesystem using its
PARTLABEL. This enables booting from more media, such as HDD, SD card or
USB.
We update the readme, which hinted that ACPI was mandatory. This is not
strictly the case as we can also boot with a dtb and/or a U-Boot based
firmware, with no ACPI. While at it, mention EBBR, SystemReady and explain
how to build and use a U-Boot-based qemu firmware.

New generic defconfig for aarch64, to run on aarch64 servers compliant
with EFI firmware and ACPI.
This can also be tested with qemu, and is useful so that we have an
arm defconfig with grub enabled. Tested with qemu 2.11.2 and AAVMF,
the aarch64 virtual machine UEFI firmware.
