MdeModulePkg/MdeModulePkg.dec,.uni: Add NULL pointer detection PCD 

PCD PcdNullPointerDetectionPropertyMask is a bitmask used to control the
NULL address detection functionality in code for different phases.

If enabled, accessing NULL address in UEFI or SMM code can be caught
as a page fault exception.

    BIT0    - Enable NULL pointer detection for UEFI.
    BIT1    - Enable NULL pointer detection for SMM.
    BIT2..6 - Reserved for future uses.
    BIT7    - Disable NULL pointer detection just after EndOfDxe. This is a
              workaround for those unsolvable NULL access issues in
              OptionROM, boot loader, etc. It can also help to avoid
              unnecessary exception caused by legacy memory (0-4095) access
              after EndOfDxe, such as Windows 7 boot on Qemu.
