x86/boot/compressed: Avoid touching ECX in startup32_set_idt_entry()
Avoid touching register %ecx in startup32_set_idt_entry(), by folding the MOV, SHL and ORL instructions into a single ORL which no longer requires a temp register. This permits ECX to be used as a function argument in a subsequent patch.
