i386: populate floppy drive information in DSDT
On x86-based systems Linux determines the presence and the type of floppy drives via a query of a CMOS field. So does SeaBIOS when populating the return data for int 0x13 function 0x08. However Windows doesn't do it. Instead, it requests this information from BIOS via int 0x13/0x08 or through ACPI objects _FDE (Floppy Drive Enumerate) and _FDI (Floppy Drive Information) of the floppy controller object. On UEFI systems only ACPI-based detection is supported. QEMU doesn't to provide those objects in its ACPI tables and as a result floppy drives aren't invisible to Windows on UEFI/OVMF. This patch adds those objects to the floppy controller in DSDT, populating them with the information from respective QEMU objects.
