* arm64-efi/netboot: Improvements to mini.iso generation:
- Add an EFI System Partition to fix booting from USB stick on
same platforms LP: #1692876.
- Remove no-op arguments -boot-load-size and -boot-info-table.
- Use simpler "-e" instead of "--efi-boot" since we only have 1
el torito image.
- Add -partition_offset 16 so that the output of commands like
'isosize' is correct.
[ Adam Conrad ]
* Move master kernels to 4.13.0-25.

Bug description:
[Impact]
On some arm64/efi platforms, the firmware will not be able to boot from an
ISO dd'd to a USB stick.
[Test Case]
My test is to attach the ISO as an "HD/USB Image" to a Cavium CRB1S w/ AMI
UEFI firmware using the BMC's Virtual Media. Note that the BMC requires that
the file be renamed with a ".img" suffix.
[Regression Risk]
For d-i, this is aligning the xorriso boot options with the same ones now
used to build the server ISO. Regression risk has been mitigated by testing on
real hardware connected as both CD and disk images.
