configs/: replace archisodevice boot parameter with archisosearchuuid

`archisosearchuuid=` first searches for a matching UUID. If that fails, then it mounts and looks for a `/boot/${archisosearchuuid}.uuid` file in all detected block devices (in whatever order `blkid` lists them). This implements "file system transposition" without relaying on boot loader specific features and does not tie us to GRUB anymore. Related to https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/mkinitcpio/mkinitcpio-archiso/-/merge_requests/48 Fixes https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/archiso/-/issues/217

@@ -17,6 +17,8 @@ Changed
 - Change releng profile's bootstrap tarball compression from gzip to zstd. zstd provides higher and faster compression.
 - Use mkinitcpio's ``microcode`` hook instead of external microcode images to simplify boot loader configuration.
   Custom PXE setups will need to update their boot loader configuration.
+- Replace ``archisodevice`` boot parameter with ``archisosearchuuid`` in all boot loader configuration. This allows to
+  have "file system transposition" without relaying on GRUB-specific features.
 
 Deprecated
