This commit introduces the `SET_NVRAM_DEFAULTS` setting, that will cause the functions in lib/bootloader_pvm.pm to boot the LPAR into the Open Firmware command line prompt and issue a `SET_NVRAM_DEFAULTS` to reset the values in the LPAR's NVRAM to its defaults. This can help to fix some boot issues caused by aborted boot processes in the LPAR, which in turn prevent the GRUB menu from being loaded. If set, LPAR will boot into the Open Firmware prompt, issue the command and then continue to boot normally. If not set, it will boot as usual.
