With the following paging structure that maps [0, 2G] with ReadWrite
bit set.
PML4[0] --> PDPTE[0] --> PDE[0-255]
\-> PDPTE[1] --> PDE[0-255]
If ReadWrite bit is cleared in PML4[0] and PageTableMap() is called
to change [0, 2M] as writable, today's logic doesn't inherit the
parent entry's attributes when determining the child entry's
attributes. It just sets the PDPTE[0].PDE[0].ReadWrite bit.
But since the PML4[0].ReadWrite is 0, [0, 2M] is still read-only.
The change fixes the bug.
If the inheritable attributes in ParentPagingEntry conflicts with the
requested attributes, let the child entries take the parent attributes
and loosen the attribute in the parent entry.
E.g.: when PDPTE[0].ReadWrite = 0 but caller wants to map [0-2MB as
ReadWrite = 1 (PDE[0].ReadWrite = 1), we need to change
PDPTE[0].ReadWrite = 1 and let all PDE[0-255].ReadWrite = 0 first.
Then change PDE[0].ReadWrite = 1.

The lib includes two APIs:
* PageTableMap
It creates/updates mapping from LA to PA.
The implementation only supports paging structures used in 64bit
mode now. PAE paging structure support will be added in future.
* PageTableParse
It parses the page table and returns the mapping relations in an
array of IA32_MAP_ENTRY.
It passed some stress tests. These test code will be upstreamed in
other patches following edk2 Unit Test framework.
