      Description of problem:
      ReaR backup does not recover UEFI systems with unattended/automatic recovery.

      How reproducible:
      Always

      Steps to Reproduce:
      1. Configure a sample Rear backup with below additional options in UEFI systems :
      ~~~
      ISO_RECOVER_MODE="unattended"
      ISO_DEFAULT="automatic"
      ~~~

      2. Boot the backup ISO to recover system automatically.

      Actual results:
      When boot with Default Label in menu with 5 seconds timeout, systems drops at recovery mode to login and perform `rear recover` manually.

      Expected results:
      It should boot in default Label and perform rear recover and automated reboot with given 30 seconds timeout. (Same as in BIOS systems)

      Additional info:
      Rear version is rear-2.6-9.el8.x86_64
