x86/boot: Introduce setup_indirect
The setup_data is a bit awkward to use for extremely large data objects,
both because the setup_data header has to be adjacent to the data object
and because it has a 32-bit length field. However, it is important that
intermediate stages of the boot process have a way to identify which
chunks of memory are occupied by kernel data. Thus introduce an uniform
way to specify such indirect data as setup_indirect struct and
SETUP_INDIRECT type.
And finally bump setup_header version in arch/x86/boot/header.S.
