This protocol is similar to the standard UEFI BlockIo protocol,
except it has no function calls and simply defines a base address
in memory where reads & writes for the block device should occur.
One planned usage is to fill a memory region with a small disk
image, and allow it to be used as a normal disk by the
standard drivers.

gEfiEdkModulePkgTokenSpaceGuid.PcdDxePcdDatabaseTraverseEnabled does not
exist. Remove references to it in .dsc files and within the comments of
the DXE PCD driver.

In some environments, the accessed bit should be set to allow the
global descriptor table (GDT) to reside in unmodifiable flash
memory.

* Only SEC is uncompressed now
* The MAIN FV with PEI & DXE can easily shrink and grow as needed
* The final output will now be OVMF.Fv rather than OVMF.fd
* The final output size will be a multiple of 64kb

Previously the interface to the SEC module was:
ESI/RSI - SEC Core entry point
EDI/RDI - PEI Core entry point
EBP/RBP - Start of BFV
Now it is:
RAX/EAX Initial value of the EAX register
(BIST: Built-in Self Test)
DI 'BP': boot-strap processor, or
'AP': application processor
RBP/EBP Address of Boot Firmware Volume (BFV)

a. Update PciBusDxe module, and move it from IntelFrameworkModulePkg to MdeModulePkg
b. Move IncompatiblePciDeviceSupportDxe module from IntelFrameworkModulePkg to MdeModulePkg
c. Update the related consumes in inf/dsc/fdf

Align the PE32/32+ images in the ROM for XIP (execute in place) images
to function properly following the change in r9327. Also, convert
pre-memory PEIM's to use the TE image format and strip-relocation
data from image. This saves a little space, and provides a sample
usage of TE images.

Previously the code would expect that the PE32 image was in the
first section of the FFS file. This might not be the case if the
PE32 section is forced to be aligned.

Note:
* This only works before ExitBootServices
* For OVMF, variables are only preserved on the disk if there
is a hard disk connected which has a writeable FAT file system.
The Ovmf/Library/EmuVariableFvbLib library will look for the
gUefiOvmfPkgTokenSpaceGuid.PcdEmuVariableEvent PCD to be set to
a non-zero value. If set, it is treated as an event handle, and
each write to the EmuVariableFvb will cause the event to be
signaled.
In this change, the OVMF platform BDS library sets up this event,
and sets the PCD so that after each write to the EMU Variable FVB,
the non-volatile variables will be saved out to the file system.
The end result is that NV variables that are written prior to the
ExitBootServices call should be preserved by storing them on the
disk.

OVMF utilizes EmuVariableFvbRuntimeDxe to provide an emulated
variable firmware volume block device for non-volatile variables.
This allows the VariableRuntimeDxe and FaultTolerantWriteDxe
to function without a real non-volatile backing store.

This driver implements a firmware volume block protocol instance
which is stored in system memory.
The MdeModulePkg/Universal/Variable/RuntimeDxe and
MdeModulePkg/Universal/FaultTolerantWriteDxe drivers make use of
this FVB instance to provide variable services.
This driver links to a PlatformFvb library to allow for
platform specific processing to take place when data is written
to the FVB.
