fwupd-efi fails to cross build from source, because it fails locating
gnu-efi using pkg-config. gnu-efi still installs to /usr/lib and that's
not a location pkg-config searches during cross compilation. The
solution here is to move its files to multiarch. Once doing that,
fwupd-efi fails to build from source natively, because it hard codes the
assumption that gnu-efi is installed to /usr/lib and some other
non-multiarch paths. I'm attaching a patch that makes it detect
gnu-efi's location from pkg-config. Doing so works both before and after
the move. Please consider applying it and forwarding it upstream.
