earlier migration away from sloppy mode-endings (r280925,280974-280976)
due to a red-herring in diagnosing HardenedBSD boot lockup.

NB: This deeply effected HardenedBSD which had a default value set.
Embarassingly, I allowed the `type' primitive to be passed -1/-1 for
c-addr/u stack input (the effect of which is to pull INT_MAX bytes
from character address negative one in which hilarity ensues over a
black screen in full-on bootlock). Much thanks to Shawn Webb [lattera]
for helping me diagnose.
NB: The mode-ending revisions were initially suspected (and reverted)
but proved to be a red-herring. Proper mode endings will be returning.

loader.efi still needs work, but boot1.efi now builds.

Much of this file is common to the architectures we support, so share
an implementation by adding a little #ifdef-ery.

It's necessary to reset the screen to make sure any vendor pixels are
gone when we start boot1. In the Lenovo X1 (3rd gen), this is the
only way to clear the screen. Previously, the Lenovo logo would only
disappear after the kernel started scrolling the display.
After resetting the screen, EFI could put us in the worst LCD mode
(oversized characters), so we now find the largest mode we can use and
hope it's the most appropriate one (it's not trivial to tell what's
the correct LCD resolution at this point). It's worth noting that the
final stage loader has a 'mode' command that can be used to switch
text modes.
While there, enable the software cursor, just like in the legacy boot
mode.

This was not (and still is not) connected to the build, but the EFI
loader is in the process of being built for other than amd64 so these
files ought to live in their eventual MD location.
