This patchset resurrects aarch64 support, using new objcopy options that are in binutils-2.38. Note that the gnu-efi branch changes, and the shim-15.6 branch has several patches on it.

Hmmm. Probably need to nerf some aarch64 cross-builds from oldish Fedora.

The changes look good to me.

Looks OK here, and passes in basic boot testing for me.

And we now get reproducibility! 🏆

Now that we've got "objcopy --target efi-app-aarch64" and similar, we
don't have to go through heroic effort to try to make aarch64 builds
work.

This patch updates to a gnu-efi branch that has newer aarch64 crt0 code,
and makes efi_aarch64_efi.lds be nearly identical to efi_x86_64_efi.lds.
