[AMD Official Use Only]

May I ask to use the OvmfMetadata instead of the of TdxMetadata for the Guided 
structure name label (same as what I did in SNP series patch #4). If you can 
send the metadata introduction as a patch separately then add the TDX 
descriptor in TDX series. I can try to make it work for the SNP series and add 
SNP specific descriptors. Additionally, I think you want to provide an absolute 
offset for the start of the metadata instead relative value so that VMM can 
very easily reach to the start of metadata.
e.g

+OvmfMetadataOffsetStart:
+  DD      (fourGigabytes - OvmfMetadataGuid - 16)
+  DW      OvmfMetadataOffsetEnd - OvmfMetadataOffsetStart
+  DB      0x35, 0x65, 0x7a, 0xe4, 0x4a, 0x98, 0x98, 0x47
+  DB      0x86, 0x5e, 0x46, 0x85, 0xa7, 0xbf, 0x8e, 0xc2
+OvmfMetadataOffsetEnd:

For SNP series, I will 3 section types #1 CPUID, # Secrets, and #3 SEC_MEM and 
will probably add a total of 3 more descriptors.

Sure. I will add the comment in IntelTdxMetadata.asm to describe the format of 
Tdx Metadata.
Here is the PR I would send as the next version.

You can have a preliminary review if you want.
