bootctl: don't advertise systemd-efi-options in --help/man anymore

The command is deprecated, as per NEWS of 254. Let's go one step further
and remove it from the help text and man page, so that people are not
inspired to use it at this time anymore.

This is how we usually have done this before: remove it from visibility,
but support it for a while still.
