Description
GOP protocol may only provide software Blt() and no hardware framebuffer. Such configuration would provide pixel type PixelBltOnly and we need to recognise it while setting up color masks.
Note: this update will fix loader.efi to be able to draw on virtual screens (with no mapped framebuffer). However, out kernel can not use such console because we gfx_private will need mapped framebuffer, if this is the case, only serial console can be used.
Testing done: I did test this with freebsd loader on qemu-system-aarch64 and with -device virtio-gpu-pci.
