Add a macro USE_5_LEVEL_PAGE_TABLE to determine whether to create
5 level page table.
If macro USE_5_LEVEL_PAGE_TABLE is defined, PML5Table is created
at (4G-12K), while PML4Table is at (4G-16K). In runtime check, if
5level paging is supported, use PML5Table, otherwise, use PML4Table.
If macro USE_5_LEVEL_PAGE_TABLE is not defined, to save space, 5level
paging is not created, and 4level paging is at (4G-12K) and be used.

In ResetVector, if create page table, its highest address is fixed
because after page table, code layout is fixed(4K for normal code,
and another 4K only contains reset vector code).
Today's implementation organizes the page table as following if 1G
page table is used:
4G-16K: PML4 page (PML4[0] points to 4G-12K)
4G-12K: PDP page
CR3 is set to 4G-16K
When 2M page table is used, the layout is as following:
4G-32K: PML4 page (PML4[0] points to 4G-28K)
4G-28K: PDP page (PDP entries point to PD pages)
4G-24K: PD page mapping 0-1G
4G-20K: PD page mapping 1-2G
4G-16K: PD page mapping 2-3G
4G-12K: PD page mapping 3-4G
CR3 is set to 4G-32K
CR3 doesn't point to a fixed location which is a bit hard to debug at
runtime.
The new page table layout will always put PML4 in highest address
When 1G page table is used, the layout is as following:
4G-16K: PDP page
4G-12K: PML4 page (PML4[0] points to 4G-16K)
When 2M page table is used, the layout is as following:
4G-32K: PD page mapping 0-1G
4G-28K: PD page mapping 1-2G
4G-24K: PD page mapping 2-3G
4G-20K: PD page mapping 3-4G
4G-16K: PDP page (PDP entries point to PD pages)
4G-12K: PML4 page (PML4[0] points to 4G-16K)
CR3 is always set to 4G-12K
So, this patch can improve debuggability by make sure the init
CR3 pointing to a fixed address(4G-12K).

Currently, page table creation has many hard-code values about the
offset to the start of page table. To simplify it, add Labels such
as Pml4, Pdp and Pd, so that we can remove many hard-code values

This patch only renames macro, with no code logic impacted.
Two purpose to rename macro:
1. Align some macro name in PageTables1G.asm and PageTables2M.asm, so
that these two files can be easily combined later.
2. Some Macro names such as PDP are not accurate, since 4 level page
entry also uses this macro. PAGE_NLE (no leaf entry) is better

X64 Reset Vector Code can access the memory range till 4GB using the
Linear-Address Translation to a 2-MByte Page, when user wants to use
more than 4G using 2M Page it will leads to use more number of Page
table entries. using the 1-GByte Page table user can use more than
4G Memory by reducing the page table entries using 1-GByte Page,
this patch attached can access memory range till 512GByte via Linear-
Address Translation to a 1-GByte Page.
Build Tool: if the nasm is not found it will throw Build errors like
FileNotFoundError: [WinError 2]The system cannot find the file specified
run the command wil try except block to get meaningful error message
Test Result: Tested in both Simulation environment and Hardware
both works fine without any issues.

Previously, we would build the page tables in
Tools/FixupForRawSection.py.
In order to let NASM build VTF0 from source during the EDK II build
process, we need to move this into the VTF0 NASM code.
