Add support for booting EFI on ARM machines, and improve EFI support


**Milestones:**

* Separate the x86 code out from the EFI implementation
* Run EFI bootloader using U-Boot EFI services on ARM
* Add support for booting ARM images using ARM FDT boot protocol

**Extended goals:**

* Add EFI loader to armv7.img and switch it from MBR to GPT or hybrid partition table
* Machine-independent EFI framebuffer support
