[PATCH master 2/2] efi: loader: bump memory map key on FreePages

efi_allocate_pages() increments the map key on every allocation, but
efi_free_pages() did not.
A payload that calls FreePages() before ExitBootServices() may thus
pass a stale memory map under a key that barebox still accepts.
Fix this by incrementing the key after a successful free.
