This patch wraps the EFI OutputString() method so that they can be
called with const arguments.  The OutputString method does not modify
its argument, although the prototype is missing const, so it is necssary
to cast away the const when calling it.

... the similar change to PrintErrMesg() also made. I'll be happy
to do both while committing.
