x86: use EFI calling convention for efi_main on x86_64
UEFI specifies the calling convention used in Microsoft compilers; first arguments of a function are passed in (%rcx, %rdx, %r8, %r9). All other compilers use System V ABI by default, passing first integer arguments of a function in (%rdi, %rsi, %rdx, %rcx, %r8, %r9). These ABI also specify different sets of registers that must be preserved across function calls (callee-saved). GCC allows using the Microsoft calling convention by adding the ms_abi attribute to a function declaration. Current EFI implementation in U-Boot specifies EFIAPI for efi_main() in the test apps but uses default calling convention in lib/efi. Save efi_main() arguments in the startup code on x86_64; use EFI calling convention for _relocate() on x86_64; consistently use EFI calling convention for efi_main() everywhere.
