[PATCH v2 2/2] x86/efi: Implement support for embedding SBAT data for x86

Similar to zboot architectures, implement support for embedding SBAT data
for x86. Put '.sbat' section in between '.data' and '.text' as the former
also covers '.bss' and '.pgtable' and thus must be the last one in the
file.
Note, the obsolete CRC-32 checksum (see commit 9c54baab4401 ("x86/boot:
Drop CRC-32 checksum and the build tool that generates it")) is gone and
while it would've been possible to reserve the last 4 bytes in '.sbat'
section too (like it's done today in '.data'), it seems to be a pointless
exercise: SBAT makes zero sense without a signature on the EFI binary so
'.sbat' won't be at the very end of the file anyway. Any tool which uses
the last 4 bytes of the file as a checksum is broken with signed EFI
binaries already.
