multiboot: Calculate upper_mem in the ROM

Browse source 
The upper_mem field of the Multiboot information struct doesn't really
contain the RAM size - 1 MB like we used to calculate it, but only the
memory from 1 MB up to the first (upper) memory hole.

In order to correctly retrieve this information, the multiboot ROM now
looks at the mmap it creates anyway and tries to find the size of
contiguous usable memory from 1 MB.

Drop the multiboot.c definition of lower_mem and upper_mem because both
are queried at runtime now.
