Jiaxin Wu 7648748e99 MdeModulePkg: Change the default IPv4 config policy
Git version '3d0a49ad' commit provided a scenario to resolve the
performance issue for IPv4, but it's not workable for IPv6. To
avoid IPv4 and IPv6 inconsistency, we decided to revert that version
fix.

If so, the default policy for Ip4Config2 is Ip4Config2PolicyDhcp,
which results in all NIC ports attempting DHCP. So, this patch is
used to changes the the default IPv4 config policy to
Ip4Config2PolicyStatic and also defer the SetData operation after
Ip4Config2Protocol installed. This update let the other platform
drivers have chance to change the default config data by consume
Ip4Config2Protocol.

Samer El-Haj-Mahmoud 9feefde0cb MdeModulePkg Ip4Dxe: Ip4Config2 to request DHCP Option6 DNS server IP
Ip4Config2 protocol implementation must request for DNS server info when the
policy is set to DHCP. And when a DHCP server responds to it with a list of
DNS server addresses, it must parse it and set it for the instance. Without
this, nobody can do a Ip4Config->GetData for DNS server IPs before calling
Dns->Configure(). This will mean a DHCP is initiated when calling
Dns->Configure(), thus causing serious performance issues. This patch
attempts to address this issue.

Jiaxin Wu 3d0a49ad47 MdeModulePkg: Fix issue about current Ip4Dxe implementation for DHCP DORA process
DHCP policy is applied as default at boot time on all NICs in the system, which results
in all NIC ports attempting DHCP and trying to acquire IP addresses during boot.
Ip4 driver should only set dhcp as default policy, and not trigger DORA at driver binding
start(). We should start DORA until one IP child is configured to use default address.
