x86/boot: Move early_setup_gdt() back into head64.c

Move early_setup_gdt() out of the startup code that is callable from the
1:1 mapping - this is not needed, and instead, it is better to expose
the helper that does reside in __head directly.

This reduces the amount of code that needs special checks for 1:1
execution suitability. In particular, it avoids dealing with the GHCB
page (and its physical address) in startup code, which runs from the
1:1 mapping, making physical to virtual translations ambiguous.
