MdeModulePkg/DxeIplPeim: reserve page 0 for NULL pointer detection 

When a boot loader examines the memory map, it can see that location 0
is available memory. If it chooses to use that memory, and
PcdNullPointerDetectionPropertyMask is enabled, use of memory in page 0
will cause an exception. This does occur when running the memtest86
program.

Leaving page 0 available is for legacy support purpose. Since we have
deprecated the support of legacy, the solution is just reserving it so
that it cannot be allocated for other uses.
