** Description changed:

- When we build a support uefi bootable image, the mkisoimage needs extra options. 
- But, in live-build 3, the option of mkisoimage is fixed and can not be customized.
+ Although live build has been used in both oem and foundation team, but
+ the main different is that:
+ 
+ [Foundation] 
+ Only for squashfs, cd-image will be used after that, the image created by live build will not be used directly.
+ 
+ [OEM]
+ Oem team uses live build in whole process which includes several binary hooks, and the final image created by live build will be used directly.
+ 
+ So the problem is that currently the image which created by live build doesn't support uefi boot,
+ so when we build a support uefi bootable image, the mkisoimage needs extra options.
