1834c081d3 efi: Add video support to the app
The current EFI video driver only works when running in the stub. In that
case the stub calls boot services (before jumping to U-Boot proper) and
copies the graphics info over to the efi table. This is necessary because
the stub exits boot services before jumping to U-Boot.

The app maintains access to boot services throughout its life, so does not
need to do this. Update the driver to support calling boot services
directly.

Enable video output for the app. Note that this uses the
EFI_GRAPHICS_OUTPUT_PROTOCOL protocol, even though it mentions vesa.

A sample qemu command-line for this case is:

   qemu-system-x86_64 -bios /usr/share/edk2.git/ovmf-ia32/OVMF-pure-efi.fd
   -drive id=disk,file=try.img,if=none,format=raw -nic none
   -device ahci,id=ahci -device ide-hd,drive=disk,bus=ahci.0

e16c47fa3d efi: Create a 64-bit app
Most modern platforms use 64-bit EFI so it is useful to have a U-Boot app
that runs under that. Add a (non-functional) build for this.

Note that --whole-archive causes the gcc 9.2 linker to crash, so disable
this for now. Once this is resolved, things should work.

For now, avoid mentioning the documentation for the 64-bit app, since it
does not work.
