MdePkg:

1. Add AcpiTable & ComponentName2 Protocol definitions.
2. Add HardwareErrorVariable GUID definition.
EdkModulePkg: 
1. Update DxeCore to let InsatllConfigurationTable() signal the event group whenever a table entry is inserted, modified or deleted.
2. Update ConPlatform to let Simple Text In and Out  not share a stop function .
