Remove dependency on layout of PROCESSOR_SMM_DESCRIPTOR
everywhere possible. The only exception is the standard
SMI entry handler template that is included with the
PiSmmCpuDxeSmm module. This allows an instance of the
SmmCpuFeaturesLib to provide alternate
PROCESSOR_SMM_DESCRIPTOR structure layouts.

PiSmmCpuDxeSmm consumes SmmAttributesTable and setup page table:
1) Code region is marked as read-only and Data region is non-executable,
if the PE image is 4K aligned.
2) Important data structure is set to RO, such as GDT/IDT.
3) SmmSaveState is set to non-executable,
and SmmEntrypoint is set to read-only.
4) If static page is supported, page table is read-only.
We use page table to protect other components, and itself.
If we use dynamic paging, we can still provide *partial* protection.
And hope page table is not modified by other components.
The XD enabling code is moved to SmiEntry to let NX take effect.
