x86, efi: Handover Protocol

As things currently stand, traditional EFI boot loaders and the EFI
boot stub are carrying essentially the same initialisation code
required to setup an EFI machine for booting a kernel. There's really
no need to have this code in two places and the hope is that, with
this new protocol, initialisation and booting of the kernel can be
left solely to the kernel's EFI boot stub. The responsibilities of the
boot loader then become,

   o Loading the kernel image from boot media

File system code still needs to be carried by boot loaders for the
scenario where the kernel and initrd files reside on a file system
that the EFI firmware doesn't natively understand, such as ext4, etc.

   o Providing a user interface

Boot loaders still need to display any menus/interfaces, for example
to allow the user to select from a list of kernels.

Bump the boot protocol number because we added the 'handover_offset'
field to indicate the location of the handover protocol entry point.

**** EFI HANDOVER PROTOCOL
This protocol allows boot loaders to defer initialisation to the EFI
boot stub. The boot loader is required to load the kernel/initrd(s)
from the boot media and jump to the EFI handover protocol entry point
which is hdr->handover_offset bytes from the beginning of
startup_{32,64}.
The function prototype for the handover entry point looks like this,
efi_main(void *handle, efi_system_table_t *table, struct boot_params *bp)
'handle' is the EFI image handle passed to the boot loader by the EFI
firmware, 'table' is the EFI system table - these are the first two
arguments of the "handoff state" as described in section 2.3 of the
UEFI specification. 'bp' is the boot loader-allocated boot params.
The boot loader *must* fill out the following fields in bp,
o hdr.code32_start
o hdr.cmd_line_ptr
o hdr.cmdline_size
o hdr.ramdisk_image (if applicable)
o hdr.ramdisk_size (if applicable)
All other fields should be zero.
