limine: init at 7.1.0

This only inits the package, but not a module to use it as bootloader for
NixOS. This will come as a follow-up. However, this package alone is also
useful for itself, as one can create bootable images with the artifacts
exported by it, similar to `grub-mkrescue` or `grub-mkstandalone`.

Look at the Limine README for further instructions.
