The VariableRuntimeDxe links with NvVarStoreFormattedLib which is
required to establish the dependency on OvmfPkg\VirtNorFlashDxe.
The VirtNorFlashDxe installs the gEdkiiNvVarStoreFormattedGuid to
indicate it has finished initialising the flash variable storage
and that the variable service can be dispatched.
However, the kvmtool guest firmware dynamically detects if CFI
flash is absent and sets PcdEmuVariableNvModeEnable to TRUE
indicating emulated runtime variable must be used. Therefore,
in this scenario install the gEdkiiNvVarStoreFormattedGuid so
that the variable service can be dispatched.
Also link the NorFlashKvmtoolLib as a NULL library so that
it can discover if the CFI flash is absent and setup the PCD
PcdEmuVariableNvModeEnable. This is required in case the
NorFlashDxe is not yet dispatched.

PlatformHasAcpiDtDxe is required by other architectures also.
Hence, it is moved to OvmfPkg. So, update the consumers of this
module with the new location.

Kvmtool is a virtual machine manager that enables
hosting KVM guests. It essentially provides a
virtual hardware platform for guest operating
systems.
Kvmtool hands of a device tree containing the
current hardware configuration to the firmware.
A standards-based operating system would use
ACPI to consume the platform hardware
information, while some operating systems may
prefer to use Device Tree.
The KvmtoolPlatformDxe performs the platform
actions like determining if the firmware should
expose ACPI or the Device Tree based hardware
description to the operating system.
