as noble now supports the efi bootloader
we should make the following property configurable
'hyperVGeneration' => 'V1' or made default to V2

Hi @ramonskie,

Yes to enable an efi boot on azure you have to generate an gen2 / hypervGeneration v2 image

Docs: Azure generation-2 Hypervisor

Overall I think the efi / image generationshould be part of the Stemcell -> stemcell.MF - cloud_properties.

The image cloud_properties section is uploaded as meta data to the storage account where cpi can get all image information.

So we should first think of a new property that is part of the cloud_properties that could be used later by the cpi implementation.
