commands: Restrict commands that can load BIOS or DT blobs when locked down

There are some more commands that should be restricted when the GRUB is
locked down. Following is the list of commands and reasons to restrict:

  * fakebios:   creates BIOS-like structures for backward compatibility with
                existing OSes. This should not be allowed when locked down.

  * loadbios:   reads a BIOS dump from storage and loads it. This action
                should not be allowed when locked down.

  * devicetree: loads a Device Tree blob and passes it to the OS. It replaces
                any Device Tree provided by the firmware. This also should
                not be allowed when locked down.

Load a device tree blob (.dtb) from a filesystem, for later use by a Linux
kernel. Does not perform merging with any device tree supplied by firmware,
but rather replaces it completely.
Note: The command is not allowed when lockdown is enforced (@pxref{Lockdown}).
This is done to prevent subverting various security mechanisms.
