With current code, the acrn.efi is inserted between
cl bootloader.efi and bzImage.efi that destroyed the chain
relationship of cl bootloader and cl bzImage.efi.
And the following is current boot flow:
UEFI -> cl bootloader.efi -> acrn.efi -> bzImage.efi
The purpose of this patch is resume above chain relationship,
and make uefi vm return to efi stub context once launched,
then continue to call the UEFI API(LoadImage/StartImage) to launch
cl bootloader or other bootloaders. So the boot flow will
change to be as below:
UEFI -> acrn.efi -> cl bootloader.efi -> bzImage.efi
After applying this patch, the code related to loading
bzImage.efi and getting pe_entry is unnecessary due to
the bzImage.efi will not be launched by acrn.efi directly,
so it is removed.

As mentioned in https://github.com/projectacrn/acrn-documentation/pull/38
on some operating systems, the ``gnu-efi`` package installs the
linker under a ``gnuefi`` folder in ``${LIBDIR}``. This is the
case in Fedora for example. Check if the gnuefi folder is there
and use it if it is in the path to the linker. This PR fixes the
Makefile rather than documenting how to edit it yourself.

Currently the acrn EFI hypervisor file is installing directly to
/usr/share. This patch adds a "acrn" directory to store in
/usr/share/acrn
