Jim_Dailey@Dell.com c8d9d0e2bd ShellPkg: Increase reallocation size for temp memory files
If data of any real size were to be piped from one command to another,
an inordinate amount of time could be taken up by reallocating memory
that is only 10 bytes bigger than what is currently needed. Also, this
could cause unwelcome memory fragmentation.

Added a define to control how much memory is reallocated beyond that
which is currently needed. Set it to 1K vs. the original 10 bytes.

============================================================================
                                 OVERVIEW
============================================================================
The UEFI 2.0 shell provides a standard pre-boot command line processor.
It is similar to the EDK EFI Shell or a *nix command line parser.

============================================================================
                    HOW TO INCORPORATE THIS SHELL INTO NT32
============================================================================
The instructions below are included as a sample and template on how a 
developer may integrate this code into an existing platform:

1. Add this shell build to the NT32 build:
   Add the shell.inf to the [components] section as it is in the ShellPkg.dsc.

2. Update system PCDs to support this new module
   Update the PCD as follows using the Shell's PCD:
   gEfiIntelFrameworkModulePkgTokenSpaceGuid.PcdShellFile|{ 0x83, 0xA5, 0x04, 0x7C, 0x3E, 0x9E, 0x1C, 0x4F, 0xAD, 0x65, 0xE0, 0x52, 0x68, 0xD0, 0xB4, 0xD1 }

3. Remove the old shell from the NT32 Firmware list
   Remove the FILE APPLICATION section for the old shell.

4. Add this shell to the NT32 firmware list
   Add the Shell.INF to the end of the list of DXE modules.

5. Build NT32
