[PATCH] efi_loader: capsule: Record capsule result only if capsule is read

Record capsule update result only if the capsule file is successfully read, because the capsule GUID is not sure when the file can not be read or the file is not a capsule. Without this fix, if user puts a dummy (non-capsule) file under (ESP)EFI/UpdateCapsule, U-Boot causes a synchronous abort.
This also fixes use-after-free bug of the 'capsule' variable.

The fix seems correct, this was probably broken all along since the code frees the capsule before accessing it, even if it's successfully read.
free(capsule); } else { log_err("Reading capsule %ls failed\n", files[i]); }
/* create CapsuleXXXX */
set_capsule_result(index, capsule, ret);
/* delete a capsule either in case of success or failure */ ret = efi_capsule_delete_file(files[i]); if (ret != EFI_SUCCESS)
