<title>efi_loader: replace a u16_strdup with alloc + memcpy</title>

Heinrich reports that on RISC-V unaligned access is emulated by OpenSBI
which is very slow.  Performance wise it's better if we skip the calls
to u16_strdup() -- which in turn calls u16_strsize() and just allocate/copy the
memory directly.  The access to dp.length may still be unaligned, but that's
way less than what u16_strsize() would do

Use malloc() instead of calloc().

Closing the files uses the EFI protocol and specifically it's .close
callback.  This needs to be wrapped on an EFI_CALL()

UEFI specification requires pointers that are passed to protocol member
functions to be aligned.  There's a u16_strdup in that function which
doesn't make sense otherwise  Add a comment so no one removes it
accidentally

If the va_list we got handed over contains no protocols we must return
EFI_SUCCESS.  However in that case the current code just returns
an unintialized value.
Fix that by setting the return value in the variable definition

Update the sandbox implementation to use UCLASS_HOST and adjust all
the pieces to continue to work:

- Update the 'host' command to use the new API
- Replace various uses of UCLASS_ROOT with UCLASS_HOST
- Disable test_eficonfig since it doesn't work (this should have a unit
  test to allow this to be debugged)
- Update the blk test to use the new API
- Drop the old header file

Unfortunately it does not seem to be possible to split this change up
further.

AllocatePages() can be called with Type=AllocateAddress. Such a call can
only succeed if *Memory points to the address of an unallocated page range.

A call with *Memory being an address that is not page aligned must not
succeed. The UEFI specification requires returning EFI_OUT_OF_RESOURCES
if the requested pages cannot be allocated.

<title>efi_loader: discover if no efi_system_partition is set</title>

Variable efi_system_partition holds the efi_system_partition. Currently it
is initialized as:

    {
      .uclass_id = 0 = UCLASS_ROOT,
      .denum = 0,
      .part = 0,
    }

This indicates that host 0:0 is the efi_system_partition and we see output
like:

    =&gt; bootefi hello
    ** Bad device specification host 0 **
    Couldn't find partition host 0:0

To identify that no EFI system partition has been set use UCLASS_INVALID.

by default on and will never be turned off.

CONFIG_NET does not imply that there are actually network devices
available, only CONFIG_NETDEVICES does. Changing to this dependency
obsoletes the check in Kconfig because NETDEVICES means DM_ETH.
