ArmVirtPkg: raise PcdShellFileOperationSize to 128KB

Some UEFI shell commands read and write files in chunks. The chunk size is
given by "PcdShellFileOperationSize", whose default in
"ShellPkg/ShellPkg.dec" is 4KB (0x1000).

The virtio-fs daemon of QEMU advertizes a 128KB maximum buffer size by
default, for the FUSE_WRITE operation.

By raising PcdShellFileOperationSize 32-fold, the number of FUSE write
requests shrinks proportionately, when writing large files. And when a
Virtio Filesystem is not used, a 128KB chunk size is still not
particularly wasteful.
