Laszlo Ersek bac9c74080 BaseTools/AutoGen: declare ProcessLibraryConstructorList() for SEC modules
Most module types have standardized entry point function prototypes. They
are declared in headers like

- MdePkg/Include/Library/PeiCoreEntryPoint.h
- MdePkg/Include/Library/PeimEntryPoint.h
- MdePkg/Include/Library/DxeCoreEntryPoint.h
- MdePkg/Include/Library/UefiDriverEntryPoint.h
- MdePkg/Include/Library/UefiApplicationEntryPoint.h

These header files also declare matching ProcessLibraryConstructorList()
prototypes.

The SEC module type does not have a standardized entry point prototype
(aka parameter list), therefore no header file like the above ones exists
for SEC. Consequently, no header file *declares*
ProcessLibraryConstructorList() for SEC modules, even though AutoGen
always *defines* ProcessLibraryConstructorList() with the same, empty,
parameter list (i.e., just (VOID)).

The lack of a central declaration is a problem because in SEC code,
ProcessLibraryConstructorList() needs to be called manually, and those
calls need a prototype. Most SEC modules in edk2 get around this by
declaring ProcessLibraryConstructorList() manually, while some others use
an incorrect (PEIM) prototype.

Liming suggested in
<https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=991#c2> that AutoGen
provide the declaration as well; implement that in this patch.

Mike suggested that the feature be gated with INF_VERSION, for
compatibility reasons. (INF_VERSION >= 1.30) reflects that the latest
(draft) version of the INF specification, as of this writing, is commit
a31e3c842bee / version 1.29.

For example, if we modify "OvmfPkg/Sec/SecMain.inf" as follows:

> diff --git a/OvmfPkg/Sec/SecMain.inf b/OvmfPkg/Sec/SecMain.inf
> index 3c47a664a95d..dca932a474ee 100644
> --- a/OvmfPkg/Sec/SecMain.inf

>    BASE_NAME                      = SecMain
>    FILE_GUID                      = df1ccef6-f301-4a63-9661-fc6030dcc880
>    MODULE_TYPE                    = SEC

then the patch produces the following difference in
"Build/OvmfX64/NOOPT_GCC5/X64/OvmfPkg/Sec/SecMain/DEBUG/AutoGen.h":

> --- AutoGen.h.orig      2024-02-06 23:10:23.469535345 +0100

which presently (as of edk2 commit edc6681206) triggers the following
build error:

> In file included from OvmfPkg/Sec/SecMain.c:14:

That's a genuine bug in OvmfPkg that needs to be fixed, but we keep
compatibility with existent SEC modules until/unless they upgrade
INF_VERSION to 1.30+.
