This is why it should be a separate project/source upstream to systemd, the
bootloaders are statically linked PE-COFF/UEFI binaries so won't use libraries
etc from systemd, it will by definition have different CVEs and different code.
 With a different repo it can release when it has new features/fixes and be
independent bumps which is especially useful for dealing with CVEs.
