Michael Brown ce81601181 [prefix] Remove impossible progress message
The "progress" macro can be used only from within the .prefix section.
At the point of calling relocate(), we are running in .text16 and so
the near call to print_message() will end up calling a random function
somewhere in .text16.

Interestingly, this problem has remained unnoticed for some time.  It
is rare to build with DEBUG=libprefix.  In the few cases that it has
been used during development, the randomly selected function in
.text16 seems to have been a harmless no-op with no visible
side-effects (beyond the unnoticed failure to print the "relocate"
progress message).

Fix by removing the futile attempt to print a progress message before
calling relocate().

Michael Brown f468f12b1e [bios] Add bin-x86_64-pcbios build platform
Move most arch/i386 files to arch/x86, and adjust the contents of the
Makefiles and the include/bits/*.h headers to reflect the new
locations.

This patch makes no substantive code changes, as can be seen using a
rename-aware diff (e.g. "git show -M5").

This patch does not make the pcbios platform functional for x86_64; it
merely allows it to compile without errors.
