Documentation/x86: Update EFI memory region description

Make it clear that the EFI page tables are only available during
EFI runtime calls since that subject has come up a fair numbers
of times in the past.

Additionally, add the EFI region start and end addresses to the
table so that it's possible to see at a glance where they fall
in relation to other regions.

 Current X86-64 implementations only support 40 bits of address space,
 but we support up to 46 bits. This expands into MBZ space in the page tables.
