[PATCH] partitions: efi: allow refresh without command support

[PATCH] partitions: efi: allow refresh without command support

[Ahmad Fatoum]

CONFIG_PARTITION_MANIPULATION is currently selected by the createnv and
parted commands, but neither is really needed to make use of the
global.system.gpt_refresh magic variable.

Adapt the dependencies in Kconfig to reflect this.
