There are 3 implementations of a GUID in GRUB. Replace them with
a common one, placed in types.h.
It uses the "packed" flavor of the GUID structs, the alignment attribute
is dropped, since it is not required.

The EFI spec mandates that the handle produced by the LoadImage boot
service has a LoadedImage protocol instance installed on it, but for
robustness, we should still deal with a NULL return value from the
helper routine that obtains this protocol pointer.
If this happens, don't try to start the image but unload it and return
an error.

Switch the x86 based EFI platform builds to the generic EFI loader,
which exposes the initrd via the LoadFile2 protocol instead of the
x86-specific setup header. This will launch the Linux kernel via its EFI
stub, which performs its own initialization in the EFI boot services
context before calling ExitBootServices() and performing the bare metal
Linux boot.
Given that only Linux kernel versions v5.8 and later support this initrd
loading method, the existing x86 loader is retained as a fallback, which
will also be used for Linux kernels built without the EFI stub. In this
case, GRUB calls ExitBootServices() before entering the Linux kernel,
and all EFI related information is provided to the kernel via struct
boot_params in the setup header, as before.
Note that this means that booting EFI stub kernels older than v5.8 is
not supported even when not using an initrd at all. Also, the EFI
handover protocol, which has no basis in the UEFI specification, is not
implemented.

The arch specific image header details are not very useful as most of
the GRUB just looks at the PE/COFF spec parameters (PE32 magic and
header offset).
Remove the arch specific images headers and define a generic arch
headers that provide enough PE/COFF fields for the GRUB to parse
kernel images correctly.

ARM64 linux loader code is written in such a way that it can be reused
across different architectures without much change. Move it to common
code so that RISC-V doesn't have to define a separate loader.
