[U-Boot] [PATCH 08/14] efi_loader: Add "bootefi" command

In order to execute an EFI application, we need to bridge the gap between
U-Boot's notion of executing images and EFI's notion of doing the same.

The best path forward IMHO here is to stick completely to the way U-Boot
deals with payloads. You manually load them using whatever method to RAM
and then have a simple boot command to execute them. So in our case, you
would do

  # load mmc 0:1 $loadaddr grub.efi
  # bootefi $loadaddr

which then gets you into a grub shell. Fdt information known to U-boot
via the fdt addr command is also passed to the EFI payload.
