On ARM, xen_pfn_t is 64 bits but the size of a pointer is only
32 bits, so casting between them needs to go via (UINTN). Also
move the xen_pfn_t cast outside the shift so that we can avoid
shifting 64-bit quantities on 32-bit architectures, which may
require runtime library support.

This implements a MemoryInitPeiLib instance that differs from the
stock ArmPlatformPkg version only in the fact that it does not remove
the memory used by the flash device (FD). The reason is that, when using
PrePi, the DXE core is started immediately and never returns so there is
no reason to preserve any of the memory that the flash device occupied
originally, and it is preferable to release is so that the OS loader
can reuse it. This is especially important for the relocatable PrePi
configuration, which is aimed at being launched from a boot loader that
itself adheres to the Linux arm64 boot protocol.

In this patch we remove all dependencies on ARM BDS libraries. We also
remove empty and/or unneeded functions, includes, etc.
PlatformIntelBdsLib "goes back to basics" temporarily -- there are no
consoles configured, and it's practically not possible to interact with
the user interface. Bisection remains available in the sense that
"ArmVirtualizationQemu.dsc" continues to build and should boot preexistent
boot options, but user interaction does regress temporarily.
The reason for this is that it's preferable to keep this patch and the
next one separate for readability's sake -- they amount to a rewrite from

In the following call chain:
PlatformBdsPolicyBehavior()
PlatformBdsConnectConsole()
InitializeConsolePipe() x 3
BdsConnectDevicePath() [ArmPkg/Library/BdsLib/BdsFilePath.c]
the three InitializeConsolePipe() function calls pass through
- (&gST->ConsoleOutHandle, &gST->ConOut),
- (&gST->ConsoleInHandle, &gST->ConIn),
- (&gST->StandardErrorHandle, &gST->StdErr)
to BdsConnectDevicePath(), in ArmPkg's BdsLib.
At least when more than one console device paths are specified in the
ConIn / ConOut / ErrOut variables, the above resuls in:
- unchanged protocol interfaces (ConOut, ConIn, StdErr) in the system
table (because ConSplitterDxe installs its non-NULL interfaces first),
- but, changed handles in the system table.
This effectively separates the handle fields in the system table from the
protocol interfaces in the same that should always be associated with the
handles. The end result is that clients using the handles break (splitting
/ multiplexing doesn't work for them), while clients directly using the
protocol interfaces work.
Therefore, do not attempt to connect consoles separately. ConSplitterDxe
is dispatched before PlatformBdsPolicyBehavior() is called (the latter
happens in the BDS phase), and ConSplitterDxe installs virtual handles and
protocol interfaces for input / output / error.
BdsLibConnectAll() covers all devices, including consoles; as those
consoles are connected, ConPlatformDxe and ConSplitterDxe pick them up
nicely as "slaves". We just need to make sure that the variables are set
first, for the variables -> ConPlatformDxe -> ConSplitterDxe dependency
chain.
