Bad IO performance in SEC phase is observed after TDX features was
introduced. (after commit b6b2de884864 - "MdePkg: Support mmio for
Tdx guest in BaseIoLibIntrinsic").

This is because IsTdxGuest() will be called in each MMIO operation.
It is trying to cache the result of the probe in the efi data segment.
However, that doesn't work in SEC, because the data segment is read only
(so the write seems to succeed but a read will always return the
original value), leading to us calling TdIsEnabled() check for every
mmio we do, which is causing the slowdown because it's very expensive.

TdProbe is introduced in this patch-set. It is called in
BaseIoLibIntrinsicSev instead of IsTdxGuest. There are 2 versions of the
TdProbeLib. Null instance of TdProbe always returns TD_PROBE_NON. Its
OvmfPkg version checks the Ovmf work area to determine the Td guest type.
