That is not the main problem. The main problem is that
LoadImage()/StartImage() may be used to invoke things beyond Boot####
options, and at StartImage() time, the load options could be anything.
So not measuring the load options when the image is actually being
invoked is a huge oversight.

The name 'options_chars' is a bit misleading here, as it is actually
the size in bytes at this point.

Is this an arbitrarily chosen value?
