  This file declares Section Extraction Protocol.

  This interface provides a means of decoding a set of sections into a linked list of
  leaf sections.  This provides for an extensible and flexible file format.

/**
  Reads and returns a single section from a section stream.

  @param  This                  Indicates the EFI_SECTION_EXTRACTION_PROTOCOL instance.
  @param  SectionStreamHandle   Indicates from which section stream to read.
  @param  SectionType           Pointer to an EFI_SECTION_TYPE. If SectionType == NULL, the contents of the 
                                entire section stream are returned in Buffer. If SectionType is not NULL,

                                types and can be used as a wild card to extract all sections in order.
  @param  SectionDefinitionGuid Pointer to an EFI_GUID. If SectionType ==
                                EFI_SECTION_GUID_DEFINED, SectionDefinitionGuid indicates what section GUID
                                to search for. If SectionType !=EFI_SECTION_GUID_DEFINED, then
                                SectionDefinitionGuid is unused and is ignored.
  @param  SectionInstance       Indicates which instance of the requested section
                                type to return when SectionType is not NULL.
  @param  SectionStreamHandle   A pointer to a caller-allocated UINTN that, on output,
                                contains the new section stream handle.
  @param  Buffer                Pointer to a pointer to a buffer in which the section
                                contents are returned.
  @param  BufferSize            Pointer to a caller-allocated UINTN.
  @param  AuthenticationStatus  Pointer to a caller-allocated UINT32 in
                                which any meta-data from encapsulation GUID-defined sections is returned.

  @retval EFI_SUCCESS           The SectionStream was successfully processed and
                                the section contents were returned in Buffer.
  @retval EFI_PROTOCOL_ERROR    A GUID-defined section was encountered in
                                the section stream with its EFI_GUIDED_SECTION_PROCESSING_REQUIRED bit set,
                                but there was no corresponding GUIDed Section Extraction Protocol in
                                the handle database.
  @retval EFI_NOT_FOUND         An error was encountered when parsing the SectionStream,
                                which indicates that the SectionStream is not correctly formatted.
                                Or The requested section does not exist.
  @retval EFI_OUT_OF_RESOURCES  The system has insufficient resources to process
                                the request.
  @retval EFI_INVALID_PARAMETER The SectionStreamHandle does not exist.
  @retval EFI_WARN_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL The size of the input buffer is insufficient to contain the requested
                                    section. The input buffer is filled and section contents are truncated.
