[U-Boot] [PATCH 0/6] efi_loader: add HII database protocol

HII database protocol is the last missing (major?) piece of code so that
we can run unmodified EDKII's shell and UEFI SCT on EFI-enabled u-boot.

The original code was initially written by Leif and Rob a year ago[1],
and now I'm reworking it. The implementation has not been much
enhanced from the original, but I tried to give it clearer implementation
to be able to add more functionality easily later on.
I also addressed the comments by Alex[2] and added a self test on
request of Heinrich.

HII configuration routing protocol and access protocol have only
a skeleton and should be implemented when we need to have *drivers*
that require configuration mechanism.

Concerns (if any):
* missing features (see the commit log of patch#2)
* unaligned access to *packed* structure in a package list should be
  cared?
