Introduce the ShellSortFileList() function, for sorting an
EFI_SHELL_FILE_INFO list, by FileName or by FullName.
Duplicates can be kept in the same list, or separated out to a new list.
In either case, the relative order between duplicates does not change (the
sorting is stable).
For the sorting, use OrderedCollectionLib rather than SortLib:
- The PerformQuickSort() function from the latter has quadratic worst-case
time complexity, plus it is implemented recursively (see
"MdeModulePkg/Library/UefiSortLib/UefiSortLib.c"). It can also not
return an error on memory allocation failure.
- In comparison, the Red-Black Tree instance of OrderedCollectionLib sorts
in O(n*log(n)) worst-case time, contains no recursion with the default
PcdValidateOrderedCollection=FALSE setting, and the OrderedCollectionLib
class APIs return errors appropriately.
The OrderedCollectionLib APIs do not permit duplicates natively, but by
using lists as collection entries, stable sorting of duplicates can be
achieved.

Read both file operands in chunks of "PcdShellFileOperationSize" bytes.

Internally, the library maintains a data structure which tracks

SBBR specification version. The provided interface allows:
- resetting all instance counts to 0
- incremementing the instance count for a table with a given signature
- validating the instance counts against the requirements in SBBR
The ACPI table requirements for each SBBR spec version are represented

Every missing mandatory table (for the input SBBR version) is reported

Extend validation of ACPI structure lengths which are read from the
ACPI table being parsed. Additionally check if the structure 'Length'
field value is positive. If not, stop parsing the faulting table.
Some ACPI tables define internal structures of variable size. The
'Length' field inside the substructure is used to update a pointer used
for table traversal. If the byte-length of the structure is equal to 0,
acpiview can enter an infinite loop. This condition can occur if, for
example, the zero-allocated ACPI table buffer is not fully populated.
This is typically a bug on the ACPI table writer side.
In short, this method helps acpiview recover gracefully from a
zero-valued ACPI structure length.
