Public bug reported:

linux-uc20-efi: make it easy to build derivative kernel.efi

Currently debian/rules & debian.uc20-efi/control.stub are tightly
coupled and hardcode the source package name (linux-uc20-efi), its
relationship to linux-unsigned-image-* packages, and flavours to build
kernel.efi apps for.

Decouple those things a little bit, to make it easier to build
derivative kernel.efi apps.

1) do not calculate KERNEL_SOURCE variable at all, as it is not needed
2) calculate flavours to build kernel.efi for, from build-deps

This allows to create a derivative linux-blah-uc20-efi, and simply
adjust debian.blah-uc20-efi/control.stub and produce correct signing
tarballs for the correct required derivative flavour.
