[efi] Verify object format support in elf2efi.c
Currently, if you attempt to build 64-bit EFI binaries on a 32-bit
system without a suitable cross-compiling version of libbfd, the iPXE
build will die with a segmentation fault in elf2efi64.
Fix by properly handling the return value from bfd_check_format().
