Addresses Dasharo/dasharo-issues#1440

  • update progress bar image to the new look of the update screen which includes a logo (Capsules / Improve user experience / Flexible logo #1437)
  • demonstrate new results screen for both success and failure cases (Capsules / Improve user experience / Results screen #1434)
  • explain that a failure to flash is followed by a recovery attempt which is not guaranteed to succeed, but should leave the system bootable in most cases (Capsules / Improve user experience / Recovery #1435)
  • remove instructions to disable Intel ME manually (Capsules / Improve user experience / Auto-disabling Intel ME #1438)

Some things have changed since the task was originally written and I now realize we wouldn't be able to remove old instructions even if V2 code was enabled everywhere at once just because it would apply only to newer releases:

  • the table in Supported devices should additionally indicate from which version V2 is available
  • looks like a couple places need content tabs to be able to cover both older and newer implementations
  • ME doesn't need to be HAP-disabled only if on-disk capsules are used, in which case CapsuleApp.efi should get -OD flag at the end (position matters, argument parsing is quite rigid and there is an optional parameter for this flag)

Added the V2 support list here, so far including only the upcoming MSI DPP release. I've differentiated between V2 and legacy design using content tabs
