From: Abner Chang <abner.ch...@amd.com>

For the HTTPS connetion that doesn't require TLS peer verification,
EDKII_HTTPS_TLS_PLATFORM_POLICY_PROTOCOL is introduced to platform
developer to provide the TLS configure data that is different than
the default TLS configuration. The use case such as Redfish service
connction which doesn't require the TLS peer verification on the
cetificate, especially to the Redfish service connection through
the in-band network interface.

Platform developer can provide this protoocl to EFI HTTP driver to
configure TLS using TLS conifg data provided by
EDKII_HTTPS_TLS_PLATFORM_POLICY_PROTOCOL for the specific HTTP
protocol handle. How to distinguish the correct HTTP protocol
handle for the platform TLS policy is outside the scope of this
change. For Redfish, we will provide this protocol in EFI Redfish
REST EX driver.

Question:
Do we need the version control of platform TLS configuration
data structure for the flexibility in future?
