linux_loader: improve code quality

`Option<&T>` has the same ABI layout as `*const T`, so we have some room for
improvement where we get more Rust convenience. Further, a bug is fixed where
INVALID_PARAMETER wasn't returned when the BUFFER_SIZE pointer is NULL.

See UEFI 2.10 13.2.2. EFI_LOAD_FILE2_PROTOCOL.LoadFile() for reference.
