Implemented FstubFixupEfiPartition():
Purpose is to let ReactOS handle realistic partitions length in case of an EFI/GPT protective MBR.
Indeed, when formatting a disk to GPT, you add a protective MBR that contains a fake partition entry, with type 0xEE having the following property: its size is set to maximum allocatable size in MBR.
In that case, if disk is small, you may go beyond disk size.
This is why a fix to partition length may be needed when re-reading partition entry.
This is the way ReactOS creates protective MBR.

Fixed xHalIoReadPartitionTable():
- Allocate a buffer that has the proper size (instead of allocating a buffer which is too big). Especially since this leads to partial init only some lines after.
- Remove redundant & useless affectation.
- Check/fix 0xEE partition length in case of an EFI/GPT protective MBR (see upper point).
