OvmfPkg IA32: add support for loading X64 images
This is the UEFI counterpart to my Linux series which generalizes
mixed mode support into a feature that requires very little internal
knowledge about the architecture specifics of booting Linux on the
part of the bootloader or firmware.
Instead, we add a .compat PE/COFF header containing an array of
PE_COMPAT nodes containing <machine type, entrypoint> tuples that
describe alternate entrypoints into the image for different native
machine types, e.g., IA-32 in a 64-bit image so it can be booted
from IA-32 firmware.
This patch implements the PE/COFF emulator protocol to take this new
section into account, so that such images can simply be loaded via
LoadImage/StartImage, e.g., straight from the shell.
This feature is based on the EDK2 specific PE/COFF emulator protocol
that was introduced in commit 57df17fe26cd ("MdeModulePkg/DxeCore:
invoke the emulator protocol for foreign images", 2019-04-14).
