Remove the confusing ALLOW_OFFLINE and ALLOW_ONLINE flags

Over the months the original meaning of ALLOW_OFFLINE and ALLOW_ONLINE have be lost, and there is now a confusing mixture of uses in the source tree. With this commit we make it clear the UPDATABLE flag is used to specify when the device is updatable (e.g. from the desktop live session, or from the systemd offline updates mode, or both) and the NEEDS_REBOOT flag lets us know when the update is actually going to be done. For instance, a UEFI UpdateCapsule can be *scheduled* from either the desktop or from the update mode (but the latter would be a bit weird), but does require a reboot. Some devices might only be updatable outside the live session, for instance a hard drive update or a GPU update -- there's just too much going on with a live session and we want to tightly control what's running during the firmware flash. This also means we don't have to "retry" the update when scheduling an update that really can be scheduled whenever, but just requires a reboot to apply.
