[prefix] Default to 1MB mark as fallback high memory load point
Now that we can use odd megabytes, there is no particular need to use
an even megabyte as the fallback temporary load point.
Note that the old warnings about avoiding 2MB pre-date our ability to
cooperate with other PXE ROMs by using PMM.
