Replace the ACPI OEM ID matching based IORT quirk for the ID region size
ambiguity with runtime handling of this condition.

This is based on the observation that we only care about this when it
causes ambiguity regarding the output reference, which means that we
will have more than one match for the input ID. In this case, we can
just disregard the one at the end of a multi-ID region: if we hit it
first, we record it tentatively but allow a subsequent match to
supersede it. If we hit the correct match first, there is nothing we
need to do.
