UefiCpuPkg/MpInitLib: Add AsmRelocateApLoop() assembly code

AsmRelocateApLoop() is used to place APs into MWAIT-loop if MonitorMwait
feature is supported before hand-off to OS, or place APs into HLT-loop if
MonitorMwait feature is not supported.

If the current mode is long mode, we will switch APs to protected mode
before placing APs in MWAIT-loop or HLT-loop. Thus, once APs wakeup from
loop, APs needn't the page table that may be crashed by OS.

v3:
  1. Rename AsmRellocateApLoop to AsmRelocateApLoop.
  2. Fix typo Proteced to Protected.
  3. Fix typo segement to segment
  4. Use word MONITOR instead of mwait-monitor.

Assembly code to place AP into safe loop mode.
Place AP into targeted C-State if MONITOR is supported, otherwise
place AP into hlt state.
Place AP in protected mode if the current is long mode. Due to AP maybe
wakeup by some hardware event. It could avoid accessing page table that
may not available during booting to OS.
@param[in] MwaitSupport TRUE indicates MONITOR is supported.
FALSE indicates MONITOR is not supported.
@param[in] ApTargetCState Target C-State value.
