d550b09871 Kernel: Move PC BIOS-related code to the x86_64 architecture directory
All code that is related to PC BIOS should not be in the Kernel/Firmware
directory as this directory is for abstracted and platform-agnostic code
like ACPI (and device tree parsing in the future).

This fixes a problem with the aarch64 architecure, as these machines
don't have any PC-BIOS in them so actually trying to access these memory
locations (EBDA, BIOS ROM) does not make any sense, as they're specific
to x86 machines only.

5fd975da8f Kernel: Move MultiProcessor parsing code to the Arch/x86_64 directory
This code is very x86-specific, because Intel introduced the actual
MultiProcessor specification back in 1993, qouted here as a proof:

"The MP specification covers PC/AT-compatible MP platform designs based
on Intel processor architectures and Advanced Programmable Interrupt
Controller (APIC) architectures"

428afca32b Kernel/ACPI: Make most of StaticParsing methods to be platform-agnostic
Most of the ACPI static parsing methods (methods that can be called
without initializing a full AML parser) are not tied to any specific
platform or CPU architecture.

The only method that is platform-specific is the one that finds the RSDP
structure. Thus, each CPU architecture/platform needs to implement it.
This means that now aarch64 can implement its own method to find the
ACPI RSDP structure, which would be hooked into the rest of the ACPI
code elegantly, but for now I just added a FIXME and that method returns
empty value of Optional<PhysicalAddress>.
