When switching between EFI context and U-Boot context we need to swap
the register that "gd" resides in.
Some functions slipped through here, with efi_allocate_pool / efi_free_pool
not doing the switch correctly and efi_return_handle switching too often.
Fix them all up to make sure we always have consistent register state.

After booting has finished, EFI allows firmware to still interact with the OS
using the "runtime services". These callbacks live in a separate address space,
since they are available long after U-Boot has been overwritten by the OS.
This patch adds enough framework for arbitrary code inside of U-Boot to become
a runtime service with the right section attributes set. For now, we don't make
use of it yet though.
We could maybe in the future map U-boot environment variables to EFI variables
here.

When an EFI application runs, it has access to a few descriptor and callback
tables to instruct the EFI compliant firmware to do things for it. The bulk
of those interfaces are "boot time services". They handle all object management,
and memory allocation.
This patch adds support for the boot time services and also exposes a system
table, which is the point of entry descriptor table for EFI payloads.
