1266d7902b [tables] Redefine methods for accessing linker tables
Intel's C compiler (icc) chokes on the zero-length arrays that we
currently use as part of the mechanism for accessing linker table
entries.  Abstract away the zero-length arrays, to make a port to icc
easier.

Introduce macros such as for_each_table_entry() to simplify the common
case of iterating over all entries in a linker table.

Represent table names as #defined string constants rather than
unquoted literals; this avoids visual confusion between table names
and C variable or type names, and also allows us to force a
compilation error in the event of incorrect table names.

314779eb36 [efi] Use elf2efi utility in place of efilink
elf2efi converts a suitable ELF executable (containing relocation
information, and with appropriate virtual addresses) into an EFI
executable.  It is less tightly coupled with the gPXE build process
and, in particular, does not require the use of a hand-crafted PE
image header in efiprefix.S.

elf2efi correctly handles .bss sections, which significantly reduces
the size of the gPXE EFI executable.
