The PiSmmCpuDxeSmm module makes some assumptions about GDT selectors
that are based on the GDT layout from the DxeIplPeim. For example,
the protected mode entry code and (where appropriate) the long mode
entry code in the UefiCpuPkg/PiSmmCpuDxeSmm/*/MpFuncs.* assembly
files, which are used during S3 resume, open-code segment selector
values that depend on DxeIplPeim's GDT layout.
This updates the CpuDxe module to use the same GDT layout as the
DxeIplPeim. This enables modules that are dispatched after
CpuDxe to find, and potentially save and restore, a GDT layout that
matches that of DxeIplPeim. The DxeIplPeim has a 2 GDT entries for
data selectors that are identical. These are LINEAR_SEL (GDT Offset
0x08)and LINEAR_DATA64_SEL (GDT offset 0x30). LINEAL_SEL is used for
for IA32 DXE and the LINEAR_DATA64_SEL is used for X64 DXE. This
duplicate data selector was added to the CpuDxe module to keep the
GDT and all selectors consistent.
Using a consistent GDT also improves debug experience.

We'll want to use the structures for AP startup.
Note: It seems previously we were not using '#pragma pack ()' in
CpuGdt.c.
