efivarfs: Request at most 512 bytes for variable names

commit f45812cc23fb74bef62d4eb8a69fe7218f4b9f2a upstream.

Work around a quirk in a few old (2011-ish) UEFI implementations, where
a call to `GetNextVariableName` with a buffer size larger than 512 bytes
will always return EFI_INVALID_PARAMETER.

There is some lore around EFI variable names being up to 1024 bytes in
size, but this has no basis in the UEFI specification, and the upper
bounds are typically platform specific, and apply to the entire variable
(name plus payload).

Given that Linux does not permit creating files with names longer than
NAME_MAX (255) bytes, 512 bytes (== 256 UTF-16 characters) is a
reasonable limit.
