[PATCH v4 2/4] x86/boot: Refactor BIOS/PVH start



The 2 code paths were sharing quite some common code, reuse it instead
of having duplications.
Use %dl register to store boot type before running common code.
Using a 8 bit register reduces code size.

Signed-off-by: Frediano Ziglio <frediano.ziglio@xxxxxxxxx>
---
Changes since v1:
- use %dl instead of %ebp to reduce code size;
- fold cli instruction;
- update some comments.

Changes since v3:
- dropped %dl and constant, distinguish entry by magic.
