This patch allows the ResetVector to be run indenpendently from build
time addresses.
The goal of the patch is to avoid having to create RAM just below 4G
when creating a Xen PVH guest while being compatible with the way
hvmloader currently load OVMF, just below 4G.
Only the new PVH entry point will do the calculation.
The ResetVector will figure out its current running address by creating
a temporary stack, make a call and calculate the difference between the
build time address and the address at run time.
This patch copies and make the necessary modification to some other asm
files:
- copy of UefiCpuPkg/.../Flat32ToFlat64.asm:
Allow Transition32FlatTo64Flat to be run from anywhere in memory
- copy of UefiCpuPkg/../SearchForBfvBase.asm:
Add a extra parameter to indicate where to start the search for the
boot firmware volume.

Introduce XenResetVector, a copy of OvmfPkg/ResetVector, with one
changes:
- SEC_DEFAULT_CR0: enable cache (bit 30 or CD set to 0)
Xen copies the OVMF code to RAM, there is no need to disable cache.
This new module will later be modified to add a new entry point, more
detail in a following commit "OvmfPkg/XenResetVector: Add new entry point
for Xen PVH"
Value FILE_GUID of XenResetVector have not changed compare to ResetVector
because it is a special value (gEfiFirmwareVolumeTopFileGuid).
