drivers/efi/uefi_capsules.c: coalesce and store UEFI capsules

How it approximately works:

(During a normal system run):
1. OS puts a capsule into RAM and calls UpdateCapsule() function of EFI
   runtime
2. If applying the update requires a reboot, EFI implementation creates
   a new CapsuleUpdateData* EFI variable pointing at the beginning of
   capsules description (not data, but description of the data) and does
   a warm reboot leaving capsule data and its description in RAM to be
   picked by firmware on the next boot process

(After DEV_INIT:)
3. Capsules are discovered by checking for CapsuleUpdateData* variables
4. Capsule description in memory and capsule data is validated for
   sanity
5. Capsule data is coalesced into a continuous piece of memory

(On BS_WRITE_TABLES via dasharo_add_capsules_to_bootmem() hook:)
6. Buffer with coalesced capsules is marked as reserved

(On BS_WRITE_TABLES via lb_uefi_capsules() hook:)
7. coreboot table entry is added for each of the discovered capsules

(In UEFI payload:)
8. CapsuleUpdateData* get removed
9. coreboot table is checked for any update capsules which are then
   applied
