From: Môshe van der Sterre <redacted>

Unintuitively, the BGRT graphic is apparently meant to be usable if
the valid bit in not set. The valid bit only conveys uncertainty
about the validity in relation to the screen state.

Windows 10 actually uses the BGRT image for its boot screen even if
not 'valid', for example when the user triggered the boot menu.
Because it is unclear if all firmwares will provide a usable graphic
in this case, we now look at the BMP magic number as an additional
check.
