Pierre Gondois 0875443f7e DynamicTablesPkg: Extract AcpiHelperLib from TableHelperLib
The TableHelperLib contains helper functions. Some rely on
DynamicTablesPkg definitions (they use Configuration Manager objects).
Some others are more generic.

To allow using these generic functions without including
DynamicTablesPkg definitions, move them to a new AcpiHelperLib
library.

Pierre Gondois 5b035defa8 DynamicTablesPkg: SSDT Serial Port generator
Most platforms have several serial ports. These serial ports
are described to an operating system using definition block
tables.

The SSDT Serial Port Table Generator uses the Configuration
Manager protocol to obtain information for the Serial Ports
on the platform. The serial ports are described using the
CM_ARM_SERIAL_PORT_INFO structure. The EArmObjSerialPortInfo
ID is used to represent a standard serial port.

The SSDT Serial port fixup library provides interfaces to
generate a SSDT Serial port table based on the serial port
information. The SSDT Serial Port Table Generator uses the
SSDT serial port fixup library to build serial port
definition blocks and installs the SSDT tables.
