Jian J Wang af4f4b3468 UefiCpuPkg/PiSmmCpuDxeSmm: Add SmmMemoryAttribute protocol
Heap guard makes use of paging mechanism to implement its functionality. But
there's no protocol or library available to change page attribute in SMM mode.
A new protocol gEdkiiSmmMemoryAttributeProtocolGuid is introduced to make it
happen. This protocol provide three interfaces

struct _EDKII_SMM_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTE_PROTOCOL {
  EDKII_SMM_GET_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES       GetMemoryAttributes;
  EDKII_SMM_SET_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES       SetMemoryAttributes;
  EDKII_SMM_CLEAR_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTES     ClearMemoryAttributes;
};

Since heap guard feature need to update page attributes. The page table
should not set to be read-only if heap guard feature is enabled for SMM
mode. Otherwise this feature cannot work.
