Fix a missing prototype warning by adding a forward declaration
for the PE/COFF entrypoint, and while at it, align the function
name between the x86 and ARM versions of the stub.

Now that we removed the memory limit for the allocation of the
command line, there is no longer a need to use the page based
allocator so switch to a pool allocation instead.

The practice of using __pure getter functions to access global
variables in the EFI stub dates back to the time when we had to
carefully prevent GOT entries from being emitted, because we
could not rely on the toolchain to do this for us.
Today, we use the hidden visibility pragma for all EFI stub source
files, which now all live in the same subdirectory, and we apply a
sanity check on the objects, so we can get rid of these getter
functions and simply refer to global data objects directly.
So switch over the remaining boolean variables carrying options set
on the kernel command line.

Start with efi_system_table(), and convert it into a global variable.
While at it, make it a pointer-to-const, because we can.
