Tianocore currently reads/writes a lot of NVRAM variables that
don't actually need to be saved. Occasionally some, specifically
related to the graphical/serial consoles, can become corrupted,
leading to a bricked device. To avoid this, temporarily restrict
the reading/writing of variables to skip console related ones
(starting with 'Con') until a better solution can be found.
Test: build/boot google/eve, inject "bad" NVRAM data, observe
device boots normally instead of hanging with no display detected.

Check SMM store return code and return on error.
Fixes significant boot delay in case no SMM store is present.
This can happend quite often if the tianocore payload is build standalone
and patched into a coreboot ROM.

"The size must be large enough to fit input string supplied in
VariableName buffer" is added in the description for VariableNameSize.
And two cases of EFI_INVALID_PARAMETER are added.
1. The input values of VariableName and VendorGuid are not a name and
GUID of an existing variable.
2. Null-terminator is not found in the first VariableNameSize bytes of
the input VariableName buffer.
This patch is to update code to follow them.

Current GetVariable implementation will return the first variable for
empty str VariableName, it is because GetVariable and GetNextVariablename
are sharing same function FindVariable.
But UEFI sepc defines SetVariable that If VariableName is an empty string,
then EFI_INVALID_PARAMETER is returned, that means an empty string variable
could never be set successfully, so GetVariable should return error for
empty string VariableName.

UEFI 2.6 spec has minor update to the Data parameter for GetVariable(),
and no real functional behavior change.
The modifier of Data parameter:
OUT VOID *Data
->
OUT VOID *Data OPTIONAL
The comments of Data parameter:
Data The buffer to return the contents of the variable.
->
Data The buffer to return the contents of the variable. May be NULL
with a zero DataSize in order to determine the size buffer needed.
The patch is to follow the spec to update the implementation.

2. Add MODULE_UNI_FILE file that contains the localized Abstract and Description of a module.
a. Addresses an information gap between INF files and the UEFI Distribution Packaging Specification XML schema
b. There will be an associated update to UPT in BaseTools to consume MODULE_UNI_FILE and associated UNI file during UDP creation that performs the INF -> XML conversion.
c. There will be an associated update to UPT in BaseTools to produce MODULE_UNI_FILE and associated UNI file during UDP installation that performs the XML -> INF conversion.
3. Add Module Extra UNI file that provides the localized Name of a module.
a. [UserExtensions.TianoCore."ExtraFiles"] provides an easy method for a module to specify extra files not listed in [Sources] or [Binaries] sections to be added to a UDP without having to list the files in the UPT package information data file.
b. There will be an associated update to UPT in BaseTools to package up files listed in [UserExtensions.TianoCore."ExtraFiles"] during UDP creation.
c. UNI file contains localized name of a module to go along with the localized Abstract and Description from the MODULE_UNI_FILE.

Add PcdEmuVariableNvStoreReserved which allows a platform to declare a
memory address for the EMU Variable driver to use for the NV variable
store. The EMU Variable driver will look to see if the contents of
this memory range appear to be a valid variable store, and if so
the EMU driver will use the variables.
If a platform can preserve a memory range across system resets, this
feature can allow the EMU Variable driver's NV variable store to be
preserved across a system reset.
In the default case this PCD will be set as a fixed PCD with a value
of 0. In this case this new feature should have minimal impact on
the EMU Variable driver. (Perhaps a slight increase in code size,
but no functional difference is expected.)
