x86/boot/64: Determine VA/PA offset before entering C code

Implicit absolute symbol references (e.g., taking the address of a
global variable) must be avoided in the C code that runs from the early
1:1 mapping of the kernel, given that this is a practice that violates
assumptions on the part of the toolchain. I.e., RIP-relative and
absolute references are expected to produce the same values, and so the
compiler is free to choose either. However, the code currently assumes
that RIP-relative references are never emitted here.

So an explicit virtual-to-physical offset needs to be used instead to
derive the kernel virtual addresses of _text and _end, instead of simply
taking the addresses and assuming that the compiler will not choose to
use a RIP-relative references in this particular case.

Currently, phys_base is already used to perform such calculations, but
it is derived from the kernel virtual address of _text, which is taken
using an implicit absolute symbol reference. So instead, derive this
VA-to-PA offset in asm code, and pass it to the C startup code.
