OvmfPkg/QemuBootOrderLib: add ConnectDevicesFromQemu() QemuBootOrderLib expects PlatformBootManagerLib to call the following triplet: (1) EfiBootManagerConnectAll(), (2) EfiBootManagerRefreshAllBootOption(), (3) SetBootOrderFromQemu(). This leads to bad performance, when many devices exist such that the firmware can drive them, but they aren't marked for booting in the "bootorder" fw_cfg file. Namely, (1) EfiBootManagerConnectAll() talks to all hardware, which takes long. Plus some DriverBindingStart() functions write NV variables, which is also slow. (For example, the IP config policy for each NIC is stored in an NV var that is named after the MAC). (2) EfiBootManagerRefreshAllBootOption() generates boot options from the protocol instances produced by (1). Writing boot options is slow. (3) Under the above circumstances, SetBootOrderFromQemu() removes most of the boot options produced by (2). Erasing boot options is slow. Introduce ConnectDevicesFromQemu() as a replacement for (1): only connect devices that the QEMU user actually wants to boot off of. (There's a slight loss of compatibility when a platform switches from EfiBootManagerConnectAll() to ConnectDevicesFromQemu(). EfiBootManagerConnectAll() may produce UEFI device paths that are unknown to QemuBootOrderLib (that is, for neither PCI- nor virtio-mmio-based devices). The BootOrderComplete() function lets such unmatched boot options survive at the end of the boot order. With ConnectDevicesFromQemu(), these options will not be auto-generated in the first place. They may still be produced by other means. SetBootOrderFromQemu() is not modified in any way; reordering+filtering boot options remains a separate task.)

OvmfPkg: QemuBootOrderLib: expose QEMU's "-boot menu=on[,splash-time=N]" The QEMU command line option -boot menu=on is meant to have the guest firmware wait for a firmware-specific interval for the user to enter the boot menu. During the wait, the user can opt to enter the boot menu, or interrupt the wait and proceed to booting at once. If the wait interval elapses, the firmware should boot as it normally would. The QEMU command line option -boot menu=on,splash-time=N means the same, except the firmware should wait for cca. N milliseconds instead of a firmware-specific interval. We can approximate this behavior quite well for edk2's virtual platforms because the Intel BDS front page already supports a progress bar, with semantics similar to the above. Let's distill the fw_cfg bits underlying "-boot menu=on,splash-time=N" for the BDS policies, in the form of a timeout value they can pass to Intel's PlatformBdsEnterFrontPage(). If the boot menu is not requested, we return "gEfiIntelFrameworkModulePkgTokenSpaceGuid.PcdPlatformBootTimeOut", which is what the virtual platforms use right now. If the boot menu is requested without specifying the timeout, we return the same PCD, unless it would cause us to skip the boot menu at once. In the latter case, we return 3 seconds (as an approximation of the 2500 ms SeaBIOS default.)
