+ For EFI boot option, BDS separate them as six types:
+ 1. Network - The boot option points to the SimpleNetworkProtocol device.
+ Bds will try to automatically create this type boot option when enumerate.
+ 2. Shell - The boot option points to internal flash shell.
+ Bds will try to automatically create this type boot option when enumerate.
+ 3. Removable BlockIo - The boot option only points to the removable media
+ device, like USB flash disk, DVD, Floppy etc.
+ These device should contain a *removable* blockIo
+ protocol in their device handle.
+ Bds will try to automatically create this type boot option
+ when enumerate.
+ 4. Fixed BlockIo - The boot option only points to a Fixed blockIo device,
+ like HardDisk.
+ These device should contain a *fixed* blockIo
+ protocol in their device handle.
+ BDS will skip fixed blockIo devices, and NOT
+ automatically create boot option for them. But BDS
+ will help to delete those fixed blockIo boot option,
+ whose description rule conflict with other auto-created
+ boot options.
+ 5. Non-BlockIo Simplefile - The boot option points to a device whose handle
+ has SimpleFileSystem Protocol, but has no blockio
+ protocol. These devices do not offer blockIo
+ protocol, but BDS still can get the
+ \EFI\BOOT\boot{machinename}.EFI by SimpleFileSystem
+ Protocol.
+ 6. File - The boot option points to a file. These boot options are usually
+ created by user manually or OS loader. BDS will not delete or modify
+ these boot options.
