efi_loader: helloworld.c: Explicitly use .rodata for loaded_image_guid
Commit bbf75dd9345d0b ("efi_loader: output load options in helloworld") introduced a const variable in efi_main() called loaded_image_guid which got populated from a constant struct. While you would usually expect a compiler to realize that this variable should really just be a global pointer to .rodata, gcc disagrees and instead puts it on the stack. Unfortunately in some implementations of gcc it does so my calling memcpy() which we do not implement in our hello world environment. So let's explicitly move it to a global variable which in turn puts it in .rodata reliably and gets rid of the memcpy().
