efi/libstub/x86: Use Exit() boot service to exit the stub on errors
Currently, we either return with an error [from efi_pe_entry()] or
enter a deadloop [in efi_main()] if any fatal errors occur during
execution of the EFI stub. Let's switch to calling the Exit() EFI boot
service instead in both cases, so that we
a) can get rid of the deadloop, and simply return to the boot manager
if any errors occur during execution of the stub, including during
the call to ExitBootServices(),
b) can also return cleanly from efi_pe_entry() or efi_main() in mixed
mode, once we introduce support for LoadImage/StartImage based mixed
mode in the next patch.
Note that on systems running downstream GRUBs [which do not use LoadImage
or StartImage to boot the kernel, and instead, pass their own image
handle as the loaded image handle], calling Exit() will exit from GRUB
rather than from the kernel, but this is a tolerable side effect.
