When we store EFI variables on file we don't allow SetVariable at runtime,
since the OS doesn't know how to access or write that file. At the same
time keeping the U-Boot drivers alive in runtime sections and performing
writes from the firmware is dangerous -- if at all possible.
For GetVariable at runtime we copy runtime variables in RAM and expose them
to the OS. Add a Kconfig option and provide SetVariable at runtime using
the same memory backend. The OS will be responsible for syncing the RAM
contents to the file, otherwise any changes made during runtime won't
persist reboots.
It's worth noting that the variable store format is defined in EBBR [0]
and authenticated variables are explicitly prohibited, since they have
to be stored on a medium that's tamper and rollback protected.
