For floating loads with a known address, this eliminates the pattern of:
mov r12d, 80001014
mov rdx, r12d
mov rdx, dword ptr [rbp+rdx]
and generates a nice simple:
mov rdx, dword ptr [rbp+00001014]
Instead of swaping each word of the elf code section(s) looking
for a match to our pattern, we swap the pattern just once (at
compile time) and test against our swapped pattern.
* Don't claim to support any features we don't, like relocation
* Actually zero-out BSS sections, as memory might not be already
zeroed.
* Deleted commented out code.
* Removed GetPointer, updated to more modern interface methods.
* Updated pointer types style from "u32 *x" to "u32* x"
* The file already exsists, otherwise we wouldn't have gotten
this far in the boot.
* We have already checked if it's a Wii or GameCube elf,
besides, it's too late to change our minds now anyway.
* On Wii - Don't call EmulatedBS2, it can never succeed as
it knows nothing about booting elfs. Just call the
SetupWiiMemory directly if needed.
* On GameCube - We still call EmulatedBS2_GC, but we stop
it from running Apploader, which might boot something
unexpected from the default iso or DVD root folder.
