fix: revert bootloader chain — always fall through to KERNEL.EFI
The EFI_NOT_FOUND-only check broke ThinkPad boot. LOADER.EFI (systemd-boot)
exists on ACBOOT but fails on non-Mac hardware with an error other than
NOT_FOUND, so the fallback to KERNEL.EFI never fired. Restore the original
always-fall-through behavior.
