Several places in the code iterates through the configuration tables
presented by the system table.
Add new function grub_efi_find_config_table to use for this instead.

Ah, yes, I missed that one on copying from acpi.c.

My view (as can be seen in 3/3) is that the packed version is not
needed/correct.

Of course you can.
The UEFI specification explicitly states
"Unless otherwise specified, aligned on a 64-bit boundary."
which is double the natural alignment of the largest member
defined in this struct.
