Add hostname and UUID to entry.

This ensures that each entry applies strictly to the installation that created it.
Before, if two OSs (possibly of different versions) used kernelstub, whichever one last
had kernelstub run would be the one whose entry was written. This change cleans that up
a bit by writing the hostname and the UUID into the filename of the entry. This ensures
that the entry files are unique to that installation, and provides a human-readable way
to select which installation to boot (if the hostname was changed).

Update documentation

Setup simulate option to silently exit.

We don't want to flat-out remove the command line parameter without potentially
informing scripts. For now, we will print a warning message and silently exit
successfully without taking action. In the future, we will exit with non-zero
status. Following that, we'll remove the option entirely.

Remove Simulate option

This option wasn't really useful because kernelstub still did
things when it was used. It's been official deprecated since
version 2.0 and has been removed from the online and other
documentation already, so this finally removes it from the program.
