ramstage: prepare for relocation

The current ramstage code contains uses of symbols that cause issues
    when the ramstage is relocatable. There are 2 scenarios resolved by this
    patch:

1. Absolute symbols that are actually sizes/limits. The symbols are
       problematic when relocating a program because there is no way to
       distinguish a symbol that shouldn't be relocated and one that can.
       The only way to handle these symbols is to write a program to post
       process the relocations and keep a whitelist of ones that shouldn't
       be relocated. I don't believe that is a route that should be taken
       so fix the users of these sizes/limits encoded as absolute symbols
       to calculate the size at runtime or dereference a variable in memory
       containing the size/limit.

2. Absoulte symbols that were relocated to a fixed address. These
       absolute symbols are generated by assembly files to be placed at a
       fixed location. Again, these symbols are problematic because one
       can't distinguish a symbol that can't be relocated. The symbols
       are again resolved at runtime to allow for proper relocation.

For the symbols defining a size either use 2 symbols and calculate the
    difference or provide a variable in memory containing the size.
