utils: archive the UEFI pflash_vars flash

This is used by the ovmf and systemd-boot to setup things like boot
entries, boot counter and boot ordering. Previously we used to throw it
away right after upgrading that made behavior like hiding bootloader
wrong in test suite. Fix it by archiving pflash overlay and making it
available for next job.

bootup test case will need adaption as it was built on wrong asumption.
