code uses the GetTime function from the Runtime Service, however this has
been shown to not return a useable time on many arm64 UEFI implementations.

- efi_lookup_devpath() uses the DEVICE_PATH_PROTOCOL to obtain the
DEVICE_PATH for a given EFI handle.
- efi_lookup_image_devpath() uses the LOADED_IMAGE_DEVICE_PATH_PROTOCOL
to lookup the device path of the device used to load a loaded image.
- efi_devpath_name() uses the DEVICE_PATH_TO_TEXT_PROTOCOL to generate
a string description of a device path. The returned string is a CHAR16
string that can be printed via the recently added '%S' format in
libstand's printf(). Note that the returned string is returned in
allocated storage that should be freed by calling
efi_free_devpath_name().
- efi_devpath_last_node() walks a DEVICE_PATH returning a pointer to the
final node in the path (not counting the terminating node). That is,
it returns a pointer to the last meaninful node in a DEVICE_PATH.
- efi_devpath_trim() generates a new DEVICE_PATH from an existing
DEVICE_PATH. The new DEVICE_PATH does not include the last
non-terminating node in the original path. If the original DEVICE_PATH
only contains the terminating node, this function returns NULL.
The caller is responsible for freeing the returned DEVICE_PATH via
free().
- efi_devpath_handle() attempts to find a handle that corresponds to a
given device path. However, if nodes at the end of the device path do
not have valid handles associated with them, this function will return
a handle that matches a node earlier in the device path. In particular,
this function returns a handle for the node closest to the end of the
device path which has a valid handle.

Disable some compiler warnings for GCC (non-standard compiler) fixing
build failures introduced by r293724, which enabled WARNS in the EFI boot
code, when compiling with none standard compiler (GCC).

Set WARNS if not set for EFI boot code and fix the issues highlighted by
setting it.
Most components are set to WARNS level 6 with few being left at lower
levels due to the amount of changes needed to fix at higher levels.
Error types fixed:
* Missing / invalid casts
* Missing inner structs
* Unused vars
* Missing static for internal only funcs
* Missing prototypes
* Alignment changes
* Use of uninitialised vars
* Unknown pragma (intrinsic)
* Missing types etc due to missing includes
* printf formatting types

redzone below the stack pointer for scratch space and requires
interrupt and signal frames to avoid overwriting it. However, EFI uses
the Windows ABI which does not support this. As a result, interrupt
handlers in EFI push their interrupt frames directly on top of the
stack pointer. If the compiler used the red zone in a function in the
EFI loader, then a device interrupt that occurred while that function
was running could trash its local variables. In practice this happens
fairly reliable when using gzipfs as an interrupt during decompression
can trash the local variables in the inflate_table() function
resulting in corrupted output or hangs.
Fix this by disabling the redzone for amd64 EFI binaries. This
requires building not only the loader but any libraries used by the
loader without redzone support.
Thanks to Jilles for pointing me at the redzone once I found the stack
corruption.

__attribute__((format(...))), and the -fformat-extensions flag was
removed, introduce a new macro in bsd.sys.mk to choose the right variant
of compile flag for the used compiler, and use it.
Also add something similar to kern.mk, since including bsd.sys.mk from
that file will anger Warner. :-)
Note that bsd.sys.mk does not support the MK_FORMAT_EXTENSIONS knob used
in kern.mk, since that knob is only available in kern.opts.mk, not in
src.opts.mk. We might want to add it later, to more easily support
external compilers for building world (in particular, sys/boot).
as this only allows us to access file systems that EFI knows about.
With a loader that can only use EFI-supported file systems, we're
forced to put /boot on the EFI system partition. This is suboptimal
in the following ways:
1. With /boot a symlink to /efi/boot, mergemaster complains about
the mismatch and there's no quick solution.
2. The EFI loader can only boot a single version of FreeBSD. There's
no way to install multiple versions of FreeBSD and select one
at the loader prompt.
3. ZFS maintains /boot/zfs/zpool.cache and with /boot a symlink we
end up with the file on a MSDOS file system. ZFS does not have
proper handling of file systems that are under Giant.
Implement a disk device based on the block I/O protocol instead and
pull in file system code from libstand. The disk devices are really
the partitions that EFI knows about.
This change is backward compatible.

1. Make libefi portable by removing ia64 specific code and build
it on i386 and amd64 by default to prevent regressions. These
changes include fixes and improvements over previous code to
establish or improve APIs where none existed or when the amount
of kluging was unacceptably high.
2. Increase the amount of sharing between the efi and ski loaders
to improve maintainability of the loaders and simplify making
changes to the loader-kernel handshaking in the future.
The version of the efi and ski loaders are now both changed to 1.2
as user visible improvements and changes have been made.
accept load options (=command line options).
The call graph changes from *entry*->efi_main->efi_init, where
efi_main is the EFI equivalent of main to *entry*->efi_main->main,
where main is what you'd expect. efi_main now is what efi_init was.
The prototype of main follows that of C. The first argument is argc
and the second is argv. There is no third argument.
Allocation of heap pages is now handled by the EFI library and it
now deallocates the pages when main() returns or when exit() is
called. This allows us to safely return to the boot manager (or
EFI shell) without leaks. EFI applications are responsible to free
all memory themselves.
Handling of the load options is a bit tricky. There are either no
load options, load options in ASCII or load options in Unicode.
The EFI library will translate the ASCII options to Unicode options
as to simplify user code. Since the load options are passed as a
single string (if present) and main() accepts argc and argv, the
startup code also has to split the string into words and build the
argv vector. Here the trickiness starts. When the loader is started
from the EFI shell, argv[0] will automaticly load the program name.
In all other cases (ie through the boot manager), this is not the
case. Unfortunately, there's no trivial way to check. Hence, a
set of conditions is checked to determine if we need to fill in
argv[0] ourselves or not. This checking is not perfect. There are
known cases where it fails to do the right thing. The logic works
for most expected cases, though. This includes the case where no
options are given.
