docs(setup): pass the disk and partition number to efibootmgr

Browse Source 
The unsigned setup guides passed the EFI System Partition device to
efibootmgr -d, which expects the disk, and left out -p, which defaults
to partition 1. The command failed, or created a boot entry for the
wrong partition when the ESP isn't the first one. Pass the disk and the
partition number, as the signed guides do.

Once `efibootmgr` is installed, find the disk and partition number of your EFI System Partition and run the following.
For example, if your EFI System Partition is `/dev/nvme0n1p1`, the disk is `/dev/nvme0n1` and the partition
number is `1`:
```bash
$ efibootmgr -d /dev/esp_partition_here -C -L 'Sprout' -l '\EFI\boot\sprout.efi'
$ efibootmgr -d /dev/BLOCK_DEVICE -p PARTITION_NUMBER -C -L 'Sprout' -l '\EFI\boot\sprout.efi'
```
This will add a new entry to your EFI boot menu called `Sprout` that will boot Sprout with your configuration.
