Star Zeng c6368abcf0 MdeModulePkg BootScriptExecutorDxe: Reduce reserved memory consumption
We are going to reduce reserved memory consumption by page table buffer,
then OS can have more available memory to use.
Take PhysicalAddressBits = 48 and 2MB page granularity as example,
1:1 Virtual to Physical identity mapping page table buffer needs to be
((512 + 1) * 512 + 1) * 4096 = 1075843072 bytes = 0x40201000 bytes.

Current BootScriptExecutorDxe handles > 4G request by page fault because
S3ResumePeim only builds 4G page table when long mode waking vector is
not needed, but BootScriptExecutorDxe still assume the page table buffer for
page table is at 1:1 Virtual to Physical identity mapping.

To reduce reserved memory consumption, the code is updated to only use
8 extra pages to handles > 4G request by page fault.
Another, when both BIOS and OS wants long mode waking vector,
S3ResumePei should have established 1:1 Virtual to Physical identity mapping
page table for ACPI spec requirement, so no need to hook page fault handler.
