Bhupesh Sharma 6e5e544f22 OvmfPkg: Install BGRT ACPI table
While debugging OS for ACPI BGRT support (especially on VMs),
it is very useful to have the EFI firmware (OVMF in most cases
which use Tianocore) to export the ACPI BGRT table.

This patch tries to add this support in OvmfPkg.

Tested this patch in the following environments:

1. On both RHEL7.3 and Fedora-25 VM guests running on a Fedora-24 Host:
   - Ensured that the BGRT logo is properly prepared and
     can be viewed with user-space tools (like 'Gwenview' on KDE,
     for example):

     $ file /sys/firmware/acpi/bgrt/image
     /sys/firmware/acpi/bgrt/image: PC bitmap, Windows 3.x format, 193 x
     58 x 24

2. On a Windows-10 VM Guest running on a Fedora-24 Host:
   - Ensured that the BGRT ACPI table is properly prepared and can be
     read with freeware tool like FirmwareTablesView:

Note from Laszlo Ersek <lersek@redhat.com>: without the BGRT ACPI table,
Windows 8 and Windows 10 first clear the screen, then display a blue,
slanted Windows picture above the rotating white boot animation. With the
BGRT ACPI table, Windows 8 and Windows 10 don't clear the screen, the blue
Windows image is not displayed, and the rotating white boot animation is
shown between the firmware's original TianoCore boot splash and (optional)
"Start boot option" progress bar.
