Updates VariableRuntimeDxe, VariableSmm, and VariableStandaloneMm
to acquire variable flash information from the Variable Flash
Information library.
Note: This introduces a dependency on VariableFlashInfoLib in these
modules. Therefore, a platform building the variable modules must
specify an instance of VariableFlashInfoLib in their platform build.

Instead of running StMM in SPM, OP-TEE creates a new secure partition,
which emulates SPM and isolates StMM from the rest of the Trusted
Applications (TAs). We can then compile StMM as an FD image and run it
in OP-TEE. With the addition of a new RPMB driver, we can leverage OP-TEE
and store variables to an RPMB device.
Since EDK2 upper layers expect byte addressable code, for the RPMB to
work, we need to allocate memory and sync it with the hardware on
read/writes. Since DynamicPCDs are not supported in that context we
can only use PatchablePCDs. So let's switch them to Pcd instead of
FixedPcd and accomodate the new driver. While at it, move the rest
of the variables under Pcd section, instead of FixedPcd -- this is in
line with how the variables are defined in the other Variable
modules.

This change reduces SMIs for GetVariable () by maintaining a
UEFI variable cache in Runtime DXE in addition to the pre-
existing cache in SMRAM. When the Runtime Service GetVariable()
is invoked, a Runtime DXE cache is used instead of triggering an
SMI to VariableSmm. This can improve overall system performance
by servicing variable read requests without rendezvousing all
cores into SMM.
The runtime cache can be disabled with by setting the FeaturePCD
gEfiMdeModulePkgTokenSpaceGuid.PcdEnableVariableRuntimeCache
to FALSE. If the PCD is set to FALSE, the runtime cache will not be
used and an SMI will be triggered for Runtime Service
GetVariable () and GetNextVariableName () invocations.
The following are important points regarding the behavior of the
variable drivers when the variable runtime cache is enabled.
1. All of the non-volatile storage contents are loaded into the
cache upon driver load. This one time load operation from storage
is preferred as opposed to building the cache on demand. An on-
demand cache would require a fallback SMI to load data into the
cache as variables are requested.
2. SetVariable () requests will continue to always trigger an SMI.
This occurs regardless of whether the variable is volatile or
non-volatile.
3. Both volatile and non-volatile variables are cached in a runtime
buffer. As is the case in the current EDK II variable driver, they
continue to be cached in separate buffers.
4. The cache in Runtime DXE and SMM are intended to be exact copies
of one another. All SMM variable accesses only return data from the
SMM cache. The runtime caches are only updated after the variable I/O
operation is successful in SMM. The runtime caches are only updated
from SMM.
5. Synchronization mechanisms are in place to ensure the runtime cache
content integrity with the SMM cache. These may result in updates to
runtime cache that are the same in content but different in offset and
size from updates to the SMM cache.
When using SMM variables with runtime cache enabled, two caches will now
be present.
1. "Runtime Cache" - Maintained in VariableSmmRuntimeDxe. Used to service
Runtime Services GetVariable () and GetNextVariableName () callers.
2. "SMM Cache" - Maintained in VariableSmm to service SMM GetVariable ()
and GetNextVariableName () callers.
a. This cache is retained so SMM modules do not operate on data outside
SMRAM.
Because a race condition can occur if an SMI occurs during the execution
of runtime code reading from the runtime cache, a runtime cache read lock
is introduced that explicitly moves pending updates from SMM to the runtime
cache if an SMM update occurs while the runtime cache is locked. Note that
it is not expected a Runtime services call will interrupt SMM processing
since all CPU cores rendezvous in SMM.
It is possible to view UEFI variable read and write statistics by setting
the gEfiMdeModulePkgTokenSpaceGuid.PcdVariableCollectStatistics FeaturePcd
to TRUE and using the VariableInfo UEFI application in MdeModulePkg to dump
variable statistics to the console. By doing so, a user can view the number
of GetVariable () hits from the Runtime DXE variable driver (Runtime Cache
hits) and the SMM variable driver (SMM Cache hits). SMM Cache hits for
GetVariable () will occur when SMM modules invoke GetVariable ().

This change moves the following functions into a dedicated file
so they may be used in other variable files as needed. These are
commonly needed for basic variable data structure parsing
operations. The functions are grouped together in VariableParsing.c
to support cohesiveness for these operations in the file.
Furthermore, it reduces the overall size of the common Variable.c
file.
