Fall back to i386-pc if booted using EFI but -efi is missing

It may be possible, particularly in recovery situations, to be booted
using EFI on x86 when only the i386-pc target is installed.  There's
nothing actually stopping us installing i386-pc from an EFI environment,
and it's better than returning a confusing error.
