Robert Elliott c79c59f129 lsefimmap: support persistent memory and other UEFI 2.5 features 
This should accompany
	76ce1de740 Translate UEFI persistent memory type

1. Add a string for the EfiPersistentMemory type 14 that was
added in UEFI 2.5.

2. Decode the memory attributes that were added in UEFI 2.5:
* NV (non-volatile)
* MORE_RELIABLE (higher reliable, e.g., mirrored memory in a system
  with partial memory mirroring)
* RO (read-only)

3. Use proper IEC binary units (KiB, MiB, etc.) for power-of-two
values rather than misusing SI power-of-ten units (KB, MB, etc.)

4. The lsmmap command only decodes memory ranges sizes up to GiB scale
units.  Persistent memory ranges will reach into the TiB scale.
Since 64-bit size field supports TiB, PiB, and EiB, decode all of
them for completeness.

5. In the lsefimmap command, rewrite the print statements to
* avoid rounding
* avoid a big nested if/else tree.

For example: In the sixth entry below, the value of 309MB implies
316416KB but is really reporting 316436KB.

Widen the size column to 6 digits to accommodate typical cases.
The worst case value would require 14 digits; if that happens,
let the columns get out of sync.

README 

This is GRUB 2, the second version of the GRand Unified Bootloader.
GRUB 2 is rewritten from scratch to make GNU GRUB cleaner, safer, more
robust, more powerful, and more portable.

See the file NEWS for a description of recent changes to GRUB 2.

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install the
GRUB 2 data and program files.

Please visit the official web page of GRUB 2, for more information.
The URL is <http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/grub.html>.

More extensive documentation is available in the Info manual,
accessible using 'info grub' after building and installing GRUB 2.

There are a number of important user-visible differences from the
first version of GRUB, now known as GRUB Legacy. For a summary, please
see:
