Add a new option rom for the multiboot loader, using DMA transfers to copy
data instead of "rep insb".
This significantly lowers QEMU's startup latency by a factor of about 40,
for example, going from 30sec to 0.8sec when loading modules of 120MB
in size.

Skip the test if bzip2 is not available, and run it after they are

The edk2 firmware blobs are needed to run bios-tables-test. Unpack
them if any UEFI-enabled target is selected, so that the test can run.
This is a bit more than is actually necessary, since bios-tables-test
does not run for all UEFI-enabled targets, but it is the easiest
way to write this logic.

The --enable-bzip2/--disable-bzip2 configure arguments are
somehow misleading, they check for the bzip2 library, not
the bzip2 program.
We need the bzip2 program to install the EDK2 firmware blobs
(see commit 623ef637a2 "configure: Check bzip2 is available").
Check if the bzip2 program in the global meson.build to avoid
the configuration to succeed, but a later when trying to install
the firmware blobs:
../pc-bios/meson.build:5:2: ERROR: Program 'bzip2' not found

Since installation is not part of Makefiles anymore, Make need not
know the directories anymore. Meson already knows them through
built-in options, do everything using them instead of the config_host
dictionary.

This is a minimalistic boot ROM written specifically for use with QEMU.
It supports loading the second-stage loader from SPI flash into RAM, SMP
boot, and not much else.
