[efi] Ensure NUL byte is at lowest address within stack cookie 

The NUL byte included within the stack cookie to act as a string
terminator should be placed at the lowest byte address within the
stack cookie, in order to avoid potentially including the stack cookie
value within an accidentally unterminated string.
