OF: Add a separate direct kernel loading word
Currently, go-64 is used for booting a kernel from qemu (i.e. -kernel). However, there is an expectation from users that this should be able to boot not just vmlinux kernels but things like Zimages too. The bootwrapper of a BE zImage is a 32-bit ELF. Attempting to load that with go-64 means that it will be ran with MSR_SF set (64-bit mode). This crashes early in boot (usually due to what should be 32-bit operations being done with 64-bit registers eventually leading to an incorrect address being generated and branched to). Note that our 64-bit payloads are prepared to enter with MSR_SF cleared and set it themselves very early. Add a new word named go-direct that will execute any simple payload in-place and will enter with MSR_SF cleared. This allows booting a BE zImage from qemu with -machine kernel-addr=0.
