The EFI_RNG_PROTOCOL can use the RngLib. The RngLib has multiple
implementations, some of them are unsafe (e.g. BaseRngLibTimerLib).
To allow the RngDxe to detect when such implementation is used,
add a GetRngGuid() function to the RngLib.

The BaseRngLibTimerLib allows to generate number based on a timer.
This mechanism allows to have a basic non-secure implementation
for non-production platforms.
To bind and identify Random Number Generators implementations with
a GUID, an unsafe GUID should be added. This GUID cannot be added
to the MdePkg unless it is also added to a specification.
To keep the MdePkg self-contained, copy the BaseRngLibTimerLib to
the MdeModulePkg. This will allow to define an unsafe Rng GUID
in a later patch in the MdeModulePkg.
The MdePkg implementation will be removed later. This allows to give
some time to platform owners to switch to the MdeModulePkg
implementation.
