efi: libstub: use EFI_LOADER_CODE region when moving the kernel in memory

The EFI spec is not very clear about which permissions are being given
when allocating pages of a certain type. However, it is quite obvious
that EFI_LOADER_CODE is more likely to permit execution than
EFI_LOADER_DATA, which becomes relevant once we permit booting the
kernel proper with the firmware's 1:1 mapping still active.

Ostensibly, recent systems such as the Surface Pro X grant executable
permissions to EFI_LOADER_CODE regions but not EFI_LOADER_DATA regions.
