[U-Boot] [PATCH v2 1/2] efi_loader: Pass fdt address directly to bootefi cmd

The bootefi cmd today fetches its device tree pointer from either the location appointed by "fdt addr" with a fallback to the U-Boot control fdt.
This integration is unusual for U-Boot and diverges from the way we usually handle parameters to boot commands. So let's pass the fdt directly into the bootefi command instead and move the control fdt logic into the distro boot script.

ARM64 can be handled as follow-up.

The issue was with bootefi assuming that the control FDT was what gets passed to the EFI binary. With the above, the command takes an explicit parameter and hence makes no such assumption. It would be nice if there was an "fdt validate its a device tree" rather than "fdt addr" command to use here, but there isn't right now.
