Including the shim-x64 and grub2-efi-x64-cdboot packages causes
livecd-creator to automatically build a UEFI-bootable CD.

I didn't modify the dependencies for distros other than the RH family,
because:

- I checked Debian briefly for any package providing a file ending with
  "BOOTX64.EFI", and the only hit was irrelevant (it was a systemd file).

- Kickstart is RH-specific anyway.

Tested with an actual conversion:

- Built the ISO with the following livecd-creator and dnf fixes included:
  - https://github.com/rpm-software-management/dnf/pull/1825
  - https://github.com/livecd-tools/livecd-tools/pull/227

- Booted the P2V ISO in UEFI mode on QEMU, against a previously installed
  (UEFI) RHEL-7.9 guest's disk.

- Converted the guest with the help of a virt-v2v conversion server VM,
  using the QEMU output module.

- Successfully booted the converted guest.
