Current free pool routine from PiSmmCore will inspect memory guard status
for target buffer without considering pool headers. This could lead to
`IsMemoryGuarded` function to return incorrect results.

i.e. A 0-sized pool that is configured to be near tail guard page, it
could cause the returned region points into a guard page, which is legal.
However, trying to free this 0 sized pool will cause `IsMemoryGuarded` to
access guard page, which leads to page fault.

This change will inspect memory guarded with pool headers. This can avoid
errors when a pool content happens to be on a page boundary.
