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.
