The dynamic table factory dxe implements the dynamic table
factory protocol. It also implements the ACPI, SMBIOS and
DT table factories. The table generators register themselves
with the respective table factories and the factories are
responsible for instantiating instances of the generators
to build the firmware tables.

Introduce configuration manager protocol interface
that is used by the dynamic tables framework core
to communicate with configuration manager.
Configuration manager is a platform specific module
that implements the configuration manager protocol.
Table generators use this interface to retrieve the
hardware information from the configuration manager.

A Table generator is a component that implements the logic
for building a firmware table. This is typically implemented
as a library and registers itself with a table factory.
Table generators are further classified based on type of table
it generates, a namespace that signifies if the implementation
is standard or an OEM specific implementation and a table Id.
This patch introduces the definitions used for describing a
table generator.
