Description

Just another bit in the chain. Add the basic definitions and populate the information based on MB2 info. Perhaps it is a bit too early, but also enable the build in loader efi branch, so we will also get something to test with.

The purpose is to lay down the base without disrupting the BIOS variant. Since we have no framebuffer interface, only the serial console can be used.

This update will add /boot/boot1.efi (ESP boot program) and /boot/loader.efi (loader + PXE boot program) binaries, and we will depend on GNU binutils to be able to handle PEI images.
