Armbian and LibreELEC and AltLinux for Quartz64

[balbes150]

I checked KD5+wayland, it works well. The interface is fast, there are no freezes on the video when moving the mouse cursor, as on x11. Glmark2 showed more than 400 units. test images from KDE5 on the site.

Added EDK2-EFI support for Quartz64-B (directory with extension EDK2-EFI).
As a system with DE, I recommend the KDE5+wayland version. The interface works without brakes. Glmark2 shows more than 370 units. In x11 mode, glmark2 shows 110-120 units.

The installation works on eMMC

Please note, this is a test system and there may be errors in its operation.
