Workaround for DELL Debian UEFI install that does not boot

Description

In most older (maybe also newer?) DELL workstations and thin clients, for example: DELL Precision T5810 and DELL Wyse 3040, Debian is not able to boot after installation is completed. This is because your workstation expects to boot from /EFI/BOOT/BOOTX64.EFI and it cannot find it. There is a way to manually configure this in Setup page and point to the correct grubx64.efi location, but for some reason it keeps trying to load from /EFI/BOOT/BOOTX64.EFI. The workaround provided here is basically renaming the grubx64.efi into BOOTX64.EFI and put it exactly where your workstation is expecting it.

Installation Example on DELL Wyse 3040

#version 300 es
#ifdef GL_FRAGMENT_PRECISION_HIGH
precision highp float;
#else
precision mediump float;
#endif
out vec4 fragColor;
uniform vec2 resolution;
uniform vec3 orientation;
