Subject: [PATCH] PcAtChipsetPkg: Change the flow of PcRtcInit()

REF:https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3913

The original flow of PcRtcInit() is like:
1. Guarantee atomic accesses to the RTC time registers and
   read out the value.
2. Program RTC register B. (adopt 12h mode or 24h mode. Current
   bios code sets RTC to 24h mode by default).
3. Then function ConvertRtcTimeToEfiTime converts the RTC time
   value to their 24h mode by checking the hour format bit
   (1:24h mode,0:12h mode).
And here lies the problem: Step3 will fail to adjust the value if Step2 already 
sets RTC to 24h mode. The hour value in 12h mode will not be converted to its 
24h mode.

The solution is to program RTC register B a little later when all the original 
RTC registers' value is retrieved, adjusted and validated.
