uefi-rs

• Put up a PR to make almost all protocol opening happen through the open_protocol method. The other two methods for opening protocols (handle_protocol and locate_protocol) are now marked as unsafe and deprecated.

  There's still some more safety work to do with open_protocol -- if the protocol isn't opened in exclusive mode, or if the agent parameter isn't set correctly, UB could still result. But this change is a good step in the right direction.

• Created a few PRs for the next edition of This Month in Rust OSDev:

  • Fix location of MOROS addition
  • Add section on gpt-disk-rs
  • Add June changes for uefi-rs

I think I finally found a fix for the u128 division bug on x86_64-unknown-uefi. Put up a PR in the compiler-builtins repo.
