OvmfPkg: disable list length checks in NOOPT and DEBUG builds

In NOOPT and DEBUG builds, if "PcdMaximumLinkedListLength" is nonzero,
then several LIST_ENTRY *node* APIs in BaseLib compare the *full* list
length against the PCD.

This turns the time complexity of node-level APIs from constant to linear,
and that of full-list manipulations from linear to quadratic.

As an example, consider the EFI_SHELL_FILE_INFO list, which is a data
structure that's widely used in the UEFI shell. I randomly extracted 5000
files from "/usr/include" on my laptop, spanning 1095 subdirectories out
of 1538, and then ran "DIR -R" in the UEFI shell on this tree. These are
the wall-clock times:

           PcdMaximumLinkedListLength  PcdMaximumLinkedListLength
           =1,000,000                  =0
           --------------------------  ---------------------------
FAT        4 min 31 s                        18 s
virtio-fs  5 min 13 s                  1 min 33 s

Checking list lengths against an arbitrary maximum (default: 1,000,000)
seems useless even in NOOPT and DEBUG builds, while the cost is
significant; so set the PCD to 0.
