[libc] Fix typo in longjmp()

Commit 8ab4b00 ("[libc] Rewrite setjmp() and longjmp()") introduced a
regression in which the saved values of %ebx, %esi, and %edi were all
accidentally restored into %esp.  The result is that the second and
subsequent returns from setjmp() would effectively corrupt %ebx, %esi,
%edi, and the stack pointer %esp.

Use of setjmp() and longjmp() is generally discouraged: our only use
occurs as part of the implementation of PXENV_RESTART_TFTP, since the
PXE API effectively mandates its use here.  The call to setjmp()
occurs at the start of pxe_start_nbp(), where there are almost
certainly no values held in %ebx, %esi, or %edi.  The corruption of
these registers therefore had no visible effect on program execution.
The corruption of %esp would have been visible on return from
pxe_start_nbp(), but there are no known PXE NBPs which first call
PXENV_RESTART_TFTP and subsequently attempt to return to the PXE base
code.  The effect on program execution was therefore similar to that
of moving the stack to a pseudo-random location in the 32-bit address
space; this will often allow execution to complete successfully since
there is a high chance that the pseudo-random location will be unused.
The regression therefore went undetected for around one month.

Fix by restoring the correct registers from the saved jmp_buf
structure.
