nixos/tests/installer.nix: fix hydra eval
Hydra Eval has been throwing these eval errors for the past four
months, which makes the yellow "Eval Errors" bubble pretty useless:

https://hydra.nixos.org/eval/1790611#tabs-errors

```
in job ‘nixos.tests.installer.separateBoot.aarch64-linux’:
error: Non-EFI boot methods are only supported on i686 / x86_64

in job ‘nixos.tests.installer.simple.aarch64-linux’:
error: Non-EFI boot methods are only supported on i686 / x86_64

in job ‘nixos.tests.installer.lvm.aarch64-linux’:
error: Non-EFI boot methods are only supported on i686 / x86_64
```

This PR moves the failure for the `!isEfi &&
!pkgs.stdenv.hostPlatform.isx86` case from eval-time to runtime, so
the failure gets categorized under the test that produced it, rather
than just being lumped in to the catch-all Eval Errors pile
which... apparently nobody cares about.
