The current SSE2 implementation of the ZeroMem(), SetMem(),
SetMem16(), SetMem32 and SetMem64 functions is writing 16 bytes per 16
bytes. It hurts the performances so bad that this is even slower than
a simple 'rep stos' (4% slower) in regular DRAM.
To take full advantages of the 'movntdq' instruction it is better to
"queue" a total of 64 bytes in the write combining buffers. This
patch implement such a change. Below is a table where I measured
(with 'rdtsc') the time to write an entire 100MB RAM buffer. These
functions operate almost two times faster.
| Function | Arch | Untouched | 64 bytes | Result |
|----------+------+-----------+----------+--------|
| ZeroMem | Ia32 | 17765947 | 9136062 | 1.945x |
| ZeroMem | X64 | 17525170 | 9233391 | 1.898x |
| SetMem | Ia32 | 17522291 | 9137272 | 1.918x |

| SetMem16 | Ia32 | 18219673 | 9372062 | 1.944x |
| SetMem16 | X64 | 17523331 | 9275184 | 1.889x |
| SetMem32 | Ia32 | 18495036 | 9273053 | 1.994x |

NASM has replaced ASM and S files.
1. Remove ASM from all modules.
2. Remove S files from the drivers only.
3. https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=881
After NASM is updated, S files can be removed from Library.

Add the implementation of API IsZeroBuffer() via assembly in
BaseMemoryLibSse2.
The assembly codes use SSE2 XMM registers and related instructions.
