Previous patches enabled SetVariableRT using a RAM backend.
Although EBBR [0] defines a variable format we can teach userspace tools
and write the altered variables, it's better if we skip the ABI
requirements completely.

So let's add a new variable, in its own namespace called "VarToFile"
which contains a binary dump of the updated RT, BS and, NV variables
and will be updated when GetVariable is called.

Some adjustments are needed to do that.
Currently we discard BS-only variables in EBS(). We need to preserve
those on the RAM backend that exposes the variables. Since BS-only
variables can't appear at runtime we need to move the memory masking
checks from efi_var_collect() to efi_get_next_variable_name_mem()/
efi_get_variable_mem() and do the filtering at runtime.

We also need an efi_var_collect() variant available at runtime, in order
to construct the "VarToFile" buffer on the fly.

All users and applications (for linux) have to do when updating a variable
is dd that variable in the file described by "RTStorageVolatile".

Linux efivarfs uses a first 4 bytes of the output to represent attributes
in little-endian format. So, storing variables works like this:

$~ efibootmgr -n 0001
$~ dd 
if=/sys/firmware/efi/efivars/VarToFile-b2ac5fc9-92b7-4acd-aeac-11e818c3130c 
of=/boot/efi/ubootefi.var skip=4 bs=1

Why is the variable set here? A comment would be helpful.
If you set it for protection, shouldn't it be EFI_VARIABLE_READ_ONLY?

An alternative would be to return EFI_INVALID_PARAMETER in efi_set_variable_int for any attempt to set a variable with GUID efi_guid_efi_rt_var_file.
