Laszlo Ersek ea01261940 MdeModulePkg: SerialDxe: sync EFI_SERIAL_IO_MODE.Timeout with the spec
In "11.8 Serial I/O Protocol", UEFI 2.5 requires:

  The default attributes for all UART-style serial device interfaces are:
  (a) 115,200 baud,
  (b) a 1 byte receive FIFO,
  (c) a 1,000,000 microsecond timeout per character,
  (d) no parity,
  (e) 8 data bits,
  (f) and 1 stop bit.

It also says, about the EFI_SERIAL_IO_MODE.ControlMask member:

  (g) A mask of the Control bits that the device supports. The device must
      always support the Input Buffer Empty control bit.

SerialDxe complies with requirement (b) via hard-coded constants. It
complies with requirements (a), (d), (e) and (f) through PCD defaults (see
MdePkg/MdePkg.dec):

(a) 115,200 baud:
  gEfiMdePkgTokenSpaceGuid.PcdUartDefaultBaudRate|115200|UINT64|0x00000020

(d) no parity:
  # 1 - No Parity.<BR>
  gEfiMdePkgTokenSpaceGuid.PcdUartDefaultParity|1|UINT8|0x00000022

(e) 8 data bits:
  gEfiMdePkgTokenSpaceGuid.PcdUartDefaultDataBits|8|UINT8|0x00000021

(f) 1 stop bit:
  # 1 - One Stop Bit.<BR>
  gEfiMdePkgTokenSpaceGuid.PcdUartDefaultStopBits|1|UINT8|0x00000023

SerialDxe does not comply with requirements (c) and (g). In this patch, we
fix (c), and leave (g) for later.
