A single BLS entry that could not be read, was not valid UTF-8, or
failed to parse aborted entry generation and therefore the whole boot,
contrary to the generator's documented best-effort behavior. Log a
warning and skip the entry instead.
Autoconfigure detects BLS when either \loader\loader.conf or
\loader\entries exists, but the BLS generator required the entries
directory and failed the boot without it. This broke ESPs that only
have a loader.conf, such as UKI-only systemd-boot setups. Generate no
entries when the directory is missing.
