It is not necessary to have a PEI phase in the UEFI payload since no
specific PEI task is required. This patch adds a UefiPayloadEntry
driver to get UEFI Payload required information from the bootloaders,
convert them into a HOB list, load DXE core and transfer control to it.
Here is the change details:
1) Removed PEI phase, including Peicore, BlSupportPei, SecCore, etc.
2) Added UefiPayloadEntry driver. this is the only driver before DXE core.
3) Added Pure X64 support, dropped Pure IA32 (Could add later if required)
64bit payload with 32bit entry point is still supported.
4) Use one DSC file UefiPayloadPkg.dsc to support X64 and IA32X64 build.
Removed UefiPayloadIa32.dsc and UefiPayloadIa32X64.dsc
Tested with SBL and coreboot on QEMU.

CorebootModulePkg and CorebootPayloadPkg originally supports coreboot only.
In order to support other bootloaders, such as Slim Bootloader, they need
be updated to be more generic.
UEFI Payload (UefiPayloadPkg) a converged package from CorebootModulePkg
and CorebootPayloadPkg with following updates:
a. Support both coreboot and Slim Bootloader
b. Removed SataControllerDxe and BaseSerialPortLib16550 to use EDK2 modules
c. Support passing bootloader parameter to UEFI payload, e.g. coreboot
table from coreboot or HOB list from Slim Bootloader
d. Using GraphicsOutputDxe from EDK2 with minor change instead of FbGop
e. Remove the dependency to IntelFrameworkPkg and IntelFrameworkModulePkg
and QuarkSocPkg
f. Use BaseDebugLibSerialPort library as DebugLib
g. Use HPET timer, drop legacy 8254 timer support
h. Use BaseXApicX2ApicLib instead of BaseXApicLib
i. Remove HOB gUefiFrameBufferInfoGuid to use EDK2 graphics HOBs.
j. Other clean ups
On how UefiPayloadPkg could work with coreboot/Slim Bootloader, please
refer UefiPayloadPkg/BuildAndIntegrationInstructions.txt
Once UefiPayloadPkg is checked-in, CorebootModulePkg and CorebootPayloadPkg
could be retired.
