We can pass SMBIOS easily as EFI configuration table to an EFI payload. This
patch adds enablement for that case.
While at it, we also enable SMBIOS generation for ARM systems, since they support
EFI_LOADER.

Some times you may want to exit an EFI payload again, for example
to default boot into a PXE installation and decide that you would
rather want to boot from the local disk instead.
This patch adds exit functionality to the EFI implementation, allowing
EFI payloads to exit.

We can now successfully boot EFI applications from disk, but users
may want to also run them from a PXE setup.
This patch implements rudimentary network support, allowing a payload
to send and receive network packets.
With this patch, I was able to successfully run grub2 with network
access inside of QEMU's -M xlnx-ep108.

Whenever we want to tell our payload about a path, we limit ourselves
to a reasonable amount of characters. So far we only passed in device
names - exceeding 16 chars was unlikely there.
However by now we also pass real file path information, so let's increase
the limit to 32 characters. That way common paths like "boot/efi/bootaa64.efi"
fit just fine.

The EFI standard defines a simple boot protocol that an EFI payload can use
to access video output.
This patch adds support to expose exactly that one (and the mode already in
use) as possible graphical configuration to an EFI payload.
With this, I can successfully run grub2 with graphical output.

The EFI API header is great, but missing a good chunk of function prototype,
GUID defines and enum declarations.
This patch extends it to cover more of the EFI API. It's still not 100%
complete, but sufficient enough for our EFI payload interface.

When running as an EFI application, U-Boot must request memory from EFI,
and provide access to the boot services U-Boot needs.
Add library code to perform these tasks. This includes efi_main() which is
the entry point from EFI. U-Boot is built as a shared library.
