MdeModulePkg Variable: Fix Timestamp zeroing issue on APPEND_WRITE 

REF: https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=415

When SetVariable() to a time based auth variable with APPEND_WRITE
attribute, and if the EFI_VARIABLE_AUTHENTICATION_2.TimeStamp in
the input Data is earlier than current value, it will cause timestamp
zeroing.

This issue may bring time based auth variable downgrade problem.
For example:
A vendor released three certs at 2014, 2015, and 2016, and system
integrated the 2016 cert. User can SetVariable() with 2015 cert and
APPEND_WRITE attribute to cause timestamp zeroing first, then
SetVariable() with 2014 cert to downgrade the cert.

This patch fixes this issue.
