  Convert binary buffer to a Unicode String in a specified sequence. 

  This function converts bytes in the memory block pointed by Buffer to a Unicode String Str. 
  Each byte will be represented by two Unicode characters. For example, byte 0xA1 will

  for the Most Significant Nibble will be put before the Unicode Character for the Least Significant
  Nibble. The output string for the buffer containing a single byte 0xA1 will be L"A1". 
  For a buffer with multiple bytes, the Unicode character produced by the first byte will be put into the 
  the last character in the output string. The one next to first byte will be put into the
  character before the last character. This rules applies to the rest of the bytes. The Unicode
  character by the last byte will be put into the first character in the output string. For example,

/**
  Convert a Unicode string consisting of hexadecimal characters to a output byte buffer.

  This function converts a Unicode string consisting of characters in the range of Hexadecimal
  character (L'0' to L'9', L'A' to L'F' and L'a' to L'f') to a output byte buffer. The function will stop
  at the first non-hexadecimal character or the NULL character. The convertion process can be
  simply viewed as the reverse operations defined by BufToHexString. Two Unicode characters will be 
  converted into one byte. The first Unicode character represents the Most Significant Nibble and the
  second Unicode character represents the Least Significant Nibble in the output byte. 
  The first pair of Unicode characters represents the last byte in the output buffer. The second pair of Unicode 
  characters represent the  the byte preceding the last byte. This rule applies to the rest pairs of bytes. 
  The last pair represent the first byte in the output buffer. 

  For example, a Unciode String L"12345678" will be converted into a buffer wil the following bytes 
  (first byte is the byte in the lowest memory address): "0x78, 0x56, 0x34, 0x12".

  If String has N valid hexadecimal characters for conversion,  the caller must make sure Buffer is at least 
  N/2 (if N is even) or (N+1)/2 (if N if odd) bytes. 

  @param Buffer                      The output buffer allocated by the caller.

                                     contain the size of the Buffer which is actually used for the converstion.
                                     For Unicode string with 2*N hexadecimal characters (not including the 
                                     tailing NULL character), N bytes of Buffer will be used for the output.
  @param String                      The input hexadecimal string.
  @param ConvertedStrLen             The number of hexadecimal characters used to produce content in output
                                     buffer Buffer.

  @retval  RETURN_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL   The input BufferSizeInBytes is too small to hold the output. BufferSizeInBytes
                                     will be updated to the size required for the converstion.
  @retval  RETURN_SUCCESS            The convertion is successful or the first Unicode character from String
                                     is hexadecimal. If ConvertedStrLen is not NULL, it is updated
