ext_ramdisk_image/size will record high 32bits for ramdisk info.
xloadflags bit0 will be set if relocatable with 64bit.
Let get_ramdisk_image/size to use ext_ramdisk_image/size to get
right positon for ramdisk.
bootloader will fill value to ext_ramdisk_image/size when it load
ramdisk high.
Also bootloader will check if xloadflags bit0 is set to decicde if
it could load ramdisk high above 4G.
Update header version to 2.12.
-v2: add ext_cmd_line_ptr for above 4G support.
-v3: update to xloadflags from HPA
