sd-boot: disable bitlocker reboot feature for now
Conceptually the feature is great and should exist, but in its current
form should be worked to be generic (i.e. not specific to
Windows/Bitlocker, but appliable to any boot entry), not be global (but
be a per-entry thing), not require a BootXXXX entry to exist, and not
check for the BitLocker signature (as TPMs are not just used for
BitLocker).
Since we want to get 251 released, mark it in the documentation, in NEWS
and in code as experimental and make clear it will be reworked in a
future release. Also, make it opt-in to make it less likely people come
to rely on it without reading up on it, and understanding that it will
likely change sooner or later.
Follow-up for: #22043
