[efi] Expose downloaded images via EFI_SIMPLE_FILE_SYSTEM_PROTOCOL
Expose iPXE's images as a UEFI file system, allowing the booted image to access all images downloaded by iPXE. This functionality is complementary to the custom iPXE download protocol. The iPXE download protocol allows a booted image to utilise iPXE to download arbitrary URIs, but requires the booted image to specifically support the custom iPXE download protocol. The new functionality limits the booted image to accessing only files that were already downloaded by iPXE (e.g. as part of a script), but can work with any generic UEFI image (e.g. the UEFI shell). Both protocols are provided simultaneously, and are attached to the SNP device handle. Signed-off-by: Michael Brown <mcb30@ipxe.org>
