[PATCH 8/8] efi/arm: populate screen_info based on data provided by the UEFI stub

Unlike on arm64, where we can simply access the screen_info struct directly,
ARM requires an intermediate step to get the information discovered by the
GOP code in the UEFI stub into the screen_info struct.

So retrieve the dedicated config table we invented for this purpose, and
put its contents into the core kernel's copy of struct screen_info.
