We need a way to customize the behaviour of the EFI boot stub, in
particular, we need a way to disable the "chunking" workaround, used
when reading files from the EFI System Partition.

One of my machines doesn't cope well when reading files in 1MB chunks to
a buffer above the 4GB mark - it appears that the "chunking" bug
workaround triggers another firmware bug. This was only discovered with
commit 4bf7111f ("x86/efi: Support initrd loaded above 4G"), and
that commit is perfectly valid. The symptom I observed was a corrupt
initrd rather than any kind of crash.

efi= is now used to specify EFI parameters in two very different
execution environments, the EFI boot stub and during kernel boot.

There is also a slight performance optimization by enabling efi=nochunk,
but that's offset by the fact that you're more likely to run into
firmware issues, at least on x86. This is the rationale behind leaving
the workaround enabled by default.

Also provide some documentation for EFI_READ_CHUNK_SIZE and why we're
using the current value of 1MB.

This patch changes both x86 and arm64 efistub implementations
from #including shared .c files under drivers/firmware/efi to
building shared code as a static library.

The x86 code uses a stub built into the boot executable which
uncompresses the kernel at boot time. In this case, the library is
linked into the decompressor.

In the arm64 case, the stub is part of the kernel proper so the library
is linked into the kernel proper as well.

In order to move from the #include "../../../xxxxx.c" anti-pattern used
by both the x86 and arm64 versions of the stub to a static library
linked into either the kernel proper (arm64) or a separate boot
executable (x86), there is some prepatory work required.

This patch does the following:
- move forward declarations of functions shared between the arch
  specific and the generic parts of the stub to include/linux/efi.h
- move forward declarations of functions shared between various .c files
  of the generic stub code to a new local header file called "efistub.h"
- add #includes to all .c files which were formerly relying on the
  #includor to include the correct header files
- remove all static modifiers from functions which will need to be
  externally visible once we move to a static library

Loading unauthenticated FDT blobs directly from storage is a security hazard,
so this should only be allowed when running with UEFI Secure Boot disabled.

This patch adds PE/COFF header fields to the start of the kernel
Image so that it appears as an EFI application to UEFI firmware.
An EFI stub is included to allow direct booting of the kernel
Image.
