x86/boot/sev: Avoid shared GHCB page for early memory acceptance

Communicating with the hypervisor using the shared GHCB page requires
clearing the C bit in the mapping of that page. When executing in the
context of the EFI boot services, the page tables are owned by the
firmware, and this manipulation is not possible.

So switch to a different API for accepting memory in SEV-SNP guests, one
which is actually supported at the point during boot where the EFI stub
may need to accept memory, but the SEV-SNP init code has not executed
yet.

For simplicity, also switch the memory acceptance carried out by the
decompressor when not booting via EFI - this only involves the
allocation for the decompressed kernel, and is generally only called
after kexec, as normal boot will jump straight into the kernel from the
EFI stub.
