efi_loader: add an EFI variable with the file contents
Previous patches enabled SetVariableRT using a RAM backend.
Although EBBR [0] defines a variable format we can teach userspace tools
and write the altered variables, it's better if we skip the ABI
requirements completely.
So let's add a new variable, in its own namespace called "VarToFile"
which contains a binary dump of the updated RT, BS and, NV variables
and will be updated when GetVariable is called.
Some adjustments are needed to do that.
Currently we discard BS-only variables in EBS(). We need to preserve
those on the RAM backend that exposes the variables. Since BS-only
variables can't appear at runtime we need to move the memory masking
checks from efi_var_collect() to efi_get_next_variable_name_mem()/
efi_get_variable_mem() and do the filtering at runtime.
We also need an efi_var_collect() variant available at runtime, in order
to construct the "VarToFile" buffer on the fly.
All users and applications (for linux) have to do when updating a variable
is dd that variable in the file described by "RTStorageVolatile".
Linux efivarfs uses a first 4 bytes of the output to represent attributes
in little-endian format. So, storing variables works like this:
