[PATCH RFC v1] hw/i386: place setup_data at fixed place in memory

["Jason A. Donenfeld" <Jason@zx2c4.com>]

The boot parameter header refers to setup_data at an absolute address,
and each setup_data refers to the next setup_data at an absolute address
too. Currently QEMU simply puts the setup_datas right after the kernel
image, and since the kernel_image is loaded at prot_addr -- a fixed
address knowable to QEMU apriori -- the setup_data absolute address
winds up being just `prot_addr + a_fixed_offset_into_kernel_image`.

This mostly works fine, so long as the kernel image really is loaded at
prot_addr. However, OVMF doesn't load the kernel at prot_addr, and
generally EFI doesn't give a good way of predicting where it's going to
load the kernel. So when it loads it at some address != prot_addr, the
absolute addresses in setup_data now point somewhere bogus, causing
crashes when EFI stub tries to follow the next link.

Fix this by placing setup_data at some fixed place in memory, not as
part of the kernel image, and then pointing the setup_data absolute
address to that fixed place in memory. This way, even if OVMF or other
chains relocate the kernel image, the boot parameter still points to the
correct absolute address.

=== NOTE NOTE NOTE NOTE NOTE ===
This commit is currently garbage! It fixes the boot test case, but it
just picks the address 0x10000000. That's probably not a good idea. If
somebody with some x86 architectural knowledge could let me know a
better reserved place to put this, that'd be very appreciated.
