[U-Boot] [PATCH v3 1/3] bootefi: allow return without EFI_BOOT_SERVICES.Exit

The Unified Extensible Firmware Interface Specification, version 2.7,
defines in chapter 2.1.2 - UEFI Application that an EFI application may
either directly return or call EFI_BOOT_SERVICES.Exit().
Unfortunately U-Boot makes the incorrect assumption that
EFI_BOOT_SERVICES.Exit() is always called.
So the following application leads to a memory exception on the aarch64
architecture when returning:
EFI_STATUS efi_main(
EFI_HANDLE handle,
EFI_SYSTEM_TABlE systable) {
return EFI_SUCCESS;
}
With this patch the entry point is stored in the image handle.
The new wrapper function do_enter is used to call the EFI entry point.

v3:
change sequence of arguments for efi_do_enter to save 12
bytes of object code on armv8 as suggested by alexander.
v2:
do not store entry in loaded_image_info but use additonal
function parameter as suggested by Alexander
