REF:https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2430
This commit will add the definitions for EDKII microcode patch HOB.
The intention of adding this HOB is to provide a scheme to store the below
information:
A. The base address and size of the microcode patches that are being
loaded (from flash) into memory;
B. The information of detected microcode patch for each processor within
the system.
The producer of the HOB will be the UefiCpuPkg/MpInitLib (where the load,
detect and apply of the microcode happen). The consumer of the HOB can be
modules that want to detect/apply the microcode patch by themselves again
later during the boot flow.
