payloads/tianocore: Rename TianoCore to edk2

Browse Source 
coreboot uses TianoCore interchangeably with EDK II, and whilst the
meaning is generally clear, it's not the payload it uses. EDK II is
commonly written as edk2.

coreboot builds edk2 directly from the edk2 repository. Whilst it
can build some components from edk2-platforms, the target is still
edk2.

[2] tianocore.org - "EDK II is a modern, feature-rich, cross-platform
firmware development environment for the UEFI and UEFI Platform
Initialization (PI) specifications."

### UEFI support: A long road to go
coreboot can be used with the Tianocore EDK2 UEFI implementation which
coreboot can be used with the edk2 UEFI implementation which
is open source and available at Github. Sadly it is not currently
integrated into the coreboot build. This has several reasons:
* EDK2 only supports GCC 4.8 profile. coreboot is now running on GCC 6.3.0.
* Incompatibilities with code inside the EDK2 which has not been updated.

We started to make progress with the integration into our sources and
