efi/libstub/arm64: Avoid image_base value from efi_loaded_image
Commit: 9f922377 ("efi/libstub/arm: Make efi_entry() an ordinary PE/COFF entrypoint") did some code refactoring to get rid of the EFI entry point assembler code, and in the process, it got rid of the assignment of image_addr to the value of _text. Instead, it switched to using the image_base field of the efi_loaded_image struct provided by UEFI, which should contain the same value. However, Michael reports that this is not the case: older GRUB builds corrupt this value in some way, and since we can easily switch back to referring to _text to discover this value, let's simply do that. While at it, fix another issue in commit 9f922377, which may result in the unassigned image_addr to be misidentified as the preferred load offset of the kernel, which is unlikely but will cause a boot crash if it does occur. Finally, let's add a warning if the _text vs. image_base discrepancy is detected, so we can tell more easily how widespread this issue actually is.
