This patch adds support for bundling the xen.efi hypervisor, the xen.cfg

CPU microcode into a single "unified" EFI executable.

For Arm, I would also consider to add the DTB in "unified" EFI
executable. See efi_arch_cfg_file_early() in xen/arch/arm/efi/efi-boot.h.

Excellent point. The DTB is critical as well. I'll add that to
the patch on Xen's gitlab.

Here is an untested patch for loading DTB from unified image:

Thanks! I will directly try to the v3 of this series.
