To avoid confusion, let's rename the efi-x86 target to efi-x86_app.

It is possible to create a generic EFI payload for all x86 boards.
The payload is configured to include as many generic drivers as
possible. All stuff that touches low-level initialization are not
allowed as such is the EFI BIOS's responsibility. Platform specific
drivers (like gpio, spi, etc) are not included.

At present the EFI application and payload support codes in the x86
directory is distributed in a hybrid way. For example, the Kconfig
options for both app and payload are in arch/x86/lib/efi/Kconfig,
but the source codes in the same directory get built only for
CONFIG_EFI_STUB.
This refactors the codes by consolidating all the EFI support codes
into arch/x86/cpu/efi, just like other x86 targets.

When U-Boot started using SPDX tags we were among the early adopters and
there weren't a lot of other examples to borrow from. So we picked the
area of the file that usually had a full license text and replaced it
with an appropriate SPDX-License-Identifier: entry. Since then, the
Linux Kernel has adopted SPDX tags and they place it as the very first
line in a file (except where shebangs are used, then it's second line)
and with slightly different comment styles than us.
In part due to community overlap, in part due to better tag visibility
and in part for other minor reasons, switch over to that style.
This commit changes all instances where we have a single declared
license in the tag as both the before and after are identical in tag
contents. There's also a few places where I found we did not have a tag
and have introduced one.

README.efi describes two different concepts:
* U-Boot exposing the UEFI API
* U-Boot running on top of UEFI.
This patch splits the document in two.
Religious references are removed.
The separation of the concepts makes sense before detailing the internals
of U-Boot exposing the UEFI API in a future patch.

It is useful to have a basic sanity check for EFI loader support. Add a
'bootefi hello' command which loads HelloWord.efi and runs it under U-Boot.

To preserve all cover letter knowledge of the status on UEFI payload
support, let's add some sections to README.efi.

- Add section about config options
- s/10kb/10KB/
The doc has a misleading 'make menuconfig' when building the EFI
application and payload. Clarify this and also update information
on test with QEMU.
