Specify how to build the PrmPkg for the AArch64 architecture.
Make the 2 following notes:
- the PrmPkg has only been tested on AArch64 using the GCC5
toolchain.
- All symbols to be listed in the PRMT as well as the
PrmModuleExportDescriptor must be explicitly preserved by resorting to
the --require-defined linker flag.

Adds a new UEFI application called "PrmInfo" that allows a user
to display and test Platform Runtime Mechanism (PRM) modules.
Execute the application help command for detailed usage
instructions and examples of how to use the application:
"PrmInfo -?"
This application is intended to be helpful during PRM enabling
by allowing the user to:
1. Confirm that their firmware port of the PRM infrastructure
implemented in this package is functioning correctly.
2. Quickly get information about what PRM modules and handlers
are present on a given system.
3. Quickly test PRM handlers without booting to a fully featured
operating system.
4. Develop and exercise PRM handlers prior to the availability of
an operating system that is PRM aware.
Adds a brief section to Readme.md about the PrmInfo UEFI application
with a link to allow the reader to find more information about the
application if interested.

Per latest design direction, we've abandoned treating the PRM Module
Update Lock as an exported object. There was concern sharing the PRM
module address space (where the lock structure resided in a data section)
with the OS kernel mode driver. The lock will now be entirely maintained
in OS context with interaces to control the lock available to ASL
(for _DSM invocation) and OS native code (for direct call).

There's currently two approaches being considered for how to allocate the
context buffer passed to PRM handlers:
1. The context buffer is allocated and populated in firmware. As such, the
FW converts all pointers internal to the buffer to virtual memory
addresses at the virtual address change event. A single context buffer
pointer is given to the OS via the PRM ACPI table and the OS converts
this single physical address to a virtual address when it passes the
context buffer as a pointer to PRM handlers.
2. The context buffer is allocated and populated in the OS. The OS gets
all the information needed to populate the context buffer from other
pre-existing resources (mainly physical addresses in the PRM ACPI
table). The OS converts all the physical addresses to virtual addresses,
allocates the context buffer instances, and fills in the information.
The OS passes the context buffer virtual address to PRM handlers.
The prior behavior was (1). The current POR behavior has moved to (2).
Until (2) is used more widely, it can be kept around with fairly minimal
overhead via a build flag in a few places.
So the default behavior is now (2) (the expected permanent behavior) with
(1) easily enabled by defining "ALLOCATE_CONTEXT_BUFFER_IN_FW" in the
compiler defined macros. A DSC define was added in PrmPkg.dsc to set this
compiler macro in the package build.
At some point in the future, all code (and some peripheral code)
surrounded with this build flag can be removed if (2) is fully
decided upon.

Adds the following content to Readme.md:
1. A basic explanation of how the package is organized and where to
find important items.
2. Adds instructions for building PrmPkg with edk2.
3. Adds a "Build Flags" section to the build instructions to explain
any build flags that may be passed to influence the build.
The final package will not have any build flags. A reasonable
number are temporarily used to test different flows until final
decisions are made as to which flow to keep.
Most notably, only Visual Studio tool chains are currently
supported due to the modifications made to support export tables.
