Prevent stack underrun in the event of a timer interrupt storm in
LocalApicTimerDxe and 8254TimerDxe interrupt handlers by using the
helper functions provided by NestedInterruptTplLib.
This fixes the same problem as addressed in commit 239b50a86
("OvmfPkg: End timer interrupt later to avoid stack overflow under
load"), but does so without breaking nested timer interrupts.

Deferring the EOI until after the call to RestoreTPL() means that any
callbacks invoked by RestoreTPL() will run with timer interrupt
delivery disabled. If any such callbacks themselves rely on timers to
implement timeout loops, then the callbacks will get stuck in an
infinite loop from which the system will never recover.
This reverts commit 239b50a86 ("OvmfPkg: End timer interrupt later to
avoid stack overflow under load").

RestoreTPL called while at TPL_HIGH_LEVEL unconditionally enables
interrupts even if called in interrupt handler. That opens a window while
interrupt is not completely handled but another interrupt could be
accepted.
If a VM starts on a heavily loaded host hundreds of periodic timer
interrupts might be queued while vCPU is descheduled (the behavior is
typical for a Xen host). The next time vCPU is scheduled again all of them
get delivered back to back causing OVMF to accept each one without
finishing a previous one and cleaning up the stack. That quickly results
in stack overflow and a triple fault.
Fix it by postponing sending EOI until we finished processing the current
tick giving interrupt handler opportunity to clean up the stack before
accepting the next tick.

[lersek@redhat.com: add BZ ref; rewrap msg to silence PatchCheck.py]
REF:https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1496
This commit will remove the IntelFrameworkPkg DEC file dependency in the
driver INF file.
A new GUID has been updated for the INF file.
Corresponding changes have been made in OVMF DSC files as well in order to
verify the build.
Please note that a subsequent commit (final patch of the series) will:
A) Add OvmfPkg/8254TimerDxe driver in OVMF FDF files;
B) Remove the consumption of PcAtChipsetPkg/8254TimerDxe driver in OVMF
DSC/FDF files.
