NULL is passed. The address of the HCDP table can be found by
iterating over the configuration tables in the EFI system table.
To avoid more duplication, a function can be called with the GUID
of interest. The function will do the scanning. Use the function
in all places where we iterate over the configuration tables in
an attempt to find a specific one.
Bump the loader version number as the result of this.

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.

o Make <stdint.h> a symbolic link to <sys/stdint.h>.
o Move most of <sys/inttypes.h> into <sys/stdint.h>, as per C99.
o Remove <sys/inttypes.h>.
o Adjust includes in sys/types.h and boot/efi/include/ia64/efibind.h
to reflect new location of integer types in <sys/stdint.h>.
o Remove previously symbolicly linked <inttypes.h>, instead create a
new file.
o Add MD headers <machine/_inttypes.h> from NetBSD.
o Include <sys/stdint.h> in <inttypes.h>, as required by C99; and
include <machine/_inttypes.h> in <inttypes.h>, to fill in the
remaining requirements for <inttypes.h>.
o Add additional integer types in <machine/ansi.h> and
<machine/limits.h> which are included via <sys/stdint.h>.
