Simplify the process of adding a new CPU architecture by providing
common implementations of typically empty architecture-specific header
files.

Define an API for executing very limited functions on application
processors in a multiprocessor system, along with an x86-only
implementation.
The normal iPXE runtime environment is effectively non-existent on
application processors. There is no ability to make firmware calls
(e.g. to write to a console), and there may be no stack space
available.

When ExitBootServices() invokes efi_shutdown_hook(), there may be
nothing to generate an interrupt since the timer is disabled in the
first step of ExitBootServices(). Additionally, for VMs OVMF masks
everything from the PIC (except the timer) by default. This means
that calling cpu_nap() may hang indefinitely. This was seen in
practice in netfront_reset() when running in a VM on XenServer.
Fix this by skipping the halt if an EFI shutdown is in progress.

There is no common standard for I/O-space access for non-x86 CPU
families, and non-MMIO peripherals are vanishingly rare.
Generalise the existing ARM definitions for dummy PIO to allow for
reuse by other CPU architectures.

The PCI I/O API (supporting accesses to PCI configuration space) is
not related to the general I/O API (supporting accesses to
memory-mapped I/O peripherals).
Remove the spurious inclusion of ipxe/io.h from the PCI I/O header.

As noted in commit 3c83843 ("[rng] Check for several functioning RTC
interrupts"), experimentation shows that Hyper-V cannot be trusted to
reliably generate RTC interrupts. (As noted in commit f3ba0fb
("[hyperv] Provide timer based on the 10MHz time reference count
MSR"), Hyper-V appears to suffer from a general problem in reliably
generating any legacy interrupts.) An alternative entropy source is
therefore required for an image that may be used in a Hyper-V Gen1
virtual machine.
The x86 RDRAND instruction provides a suitable alternative entropy
source, but may not be supported by all CPUs. We must therefore allow
for multiple entropy sources to be compiled in, with the single active
entropy source selected only at runtime.
Restructure the internal entropy API to allow a working entropy source
to be detected and chosen at runtime.
Enable the RDRAND entropy source for all x86 builds, since it is
likely to be substantially faster than any other source.

The PAGE_SHIFT definition is an architectural property, rather than an
aspect of a particular I/O API implementation (of which, in theory,
there may be more than one per architecture).
Reflect this by moving the definition to the top-level bits/io.h for
each architecture.

Add support for building as a Linux userspace binary for AArch64.
This allows the self-test suite to be more easily run for the 64-bit
ARM code. For example:
# On a native AArch64 system:
#
make bin-arm64-efi/tests.linux && ./bin-arm64-efi/tests.linux
# On a non-AArch64 system (e.g. x86_64) via cross-compilation,
# assuming that kernel and glibc headers are present within
# /usr/aarch64-linux-gnu/sys-root/:
#
make bin-arm64-linux/tests.linux CROSS=aarch64-linux-gnu- && \
qemu-aarch64 -L /usr/aarch64-linux-gnu/sys-root/ \
./bin-arm64-linux/tests.linux

It is currently not possible to build the all-drivers iPXE binaries
for ARM, since there is no implementation for inb(), outb(), etc.
There is no common standard for accessing I/O space on ARM platforms,
and there are almost no ARM-compatible peripherals that actually
require I/O space accesses.
Provide dummy implementations that behave as though no device is
present (i.e. ignore writes, return all bits high for reads). This is
sufficient to allow the all-drivers binaries to link, and should cause
drivers to behave as though no I/O space peripherals are present in
the system.

Allow the active timer (providing udelay() and currticks()) to be
selected at runtime based on probing during the INIT_EARLY stage of
initialisation.
TICKS_PER_SEC is now a fixed compile-time constant for all builds, and
is independent of the underlying clock tick rate. We choose the value
1024 to allow multiplications and divisions on seconds to be converted
to bit shifts.
TICKS_PER_MS is defined as 1, allowing multiplications and divisions
on milliseconds to be omitted entirely. The 2% inaccuracy in this
definition is negligible when using the standard BIOS timer (running
at around 18.2Hz).
TIMER_RDTSC now checks for a constant TSC before claiming to be a
usable timer. (This timer can be tested in KVM via the command-line
option "-cpu host,+invtsc".)
