To prevent double padding of XIP modules leading to excessive
waste of FV space, try to adjust existing padding rather than
adding more.
Instead of adding a pad file to the FV to line up an FFS file that
itself may contain padding to line up the payload, try to find a
dedicated padding section inside the FFS, and reduce its size to
place all subsequent aligned FFS section at their respective minimum
alignments.
When using 4 KB section alignment (which is required on AARCH64 in
some cases), this will save 4 KB for each XIP module.

Instead of using an anonymous section of type EFI_SECTION_RAW to pad
out the first aligned FFS section to its required alignment, use a
section with a dedicated GUID if the size of the padding permits it.
This allows for more flexibility when placing such FFS images in a
firmware volume, because we will now be able to remove padding rather
than add more, by shrinking the size of this section instead of
padding out the start of the FFS image to file alignment.

The secondary header (not the DOS header) of a PE/COFF binary
does not reside at a fixed offset. Instead, its offset into the
file is recorded in the DOS header.
This gives us the flexibility to move it, along with the section
headers, to right before the first section if there is considerable
space before it, i.e., when the PE/COFF file alignment is substantially
larger than the size of the header.
Since the PE/COFF to TE conversion replaces everything before the
section headers with a simple TE header, this change removes all
the header padding from such images, leading to smaller files.

In order to reduce the memory footprint of PE/COFF images when
using large values for the PE/COFF section alignment, move the
contents of the .debug section to data, and point the debug data
directory entry to it. This allows us to drop the .debug section
entirely, as well as any associated rounding. Since our .debug
section only contains the filename of the ELF input image, the
penalty of keeping this data in a non-discardable section is
negligible.
Note that the PE/COFF spec v6.3 explicitly mentions that this is
allowed.

Relocations of type EFI_IMAGE_REL_BASED_DIR64 are handled in exactly
the same way on all 64-bit machine types (IPF, X64 and AARCH64).
So move the handling of this type to the generic part of the relocation
routine PeCoffLoaderRelocateImage ().

It means the addend is different of '0'.
