x86/boot/64: Initialize 5-level paging variables earlier

Commit

  ca0e22d4f011 ("x86/boot/compressed/64: Always switch to own page table")

started using a new set of pagetables even without KASLR.

After that commit, initialize_identity_maps() is called before the
5-level paging variables are setup in choose_random_location(), which
will not work if 5-level paging is actually enabled.

Fix this by moving the initialization of __pgtable_l5_enabled,
pgdir_shift and ptrs_per_p4d into cleanup_trampoline(), which is called
immediately after the finalization of whether the kernel is executing
with 4- or 5-level paging. This will be earlier than anything that might
require those variables, and keeps the 4- vs 5-level paging code all in
one place.
