efi: Introduce EFI_NX_PE_DATA bit and set it from properties table

UEFI v2.5 introduces a runtime memory protection feature that splits
PE/COFF runtime images into separate code and data regions. Since this
may require special handling by the OS, allocate a EFI_xxx bit to
keep track of whether this feature is currently active or not.
