From: Ard Biesheuvel <a...@kernel.org>

Shim's PE loader uses the EFI memory attributes protocol in a way that
results in an immediate crash when invoking the loaded image, unless the
base and size of its executable segment are both aligned to 4k.

If this is not the case, it will strip the memory allocation of its
executable permissions, but fail to add them back for the executable
region, resulting in non-executable code. Unfortunately, the PE loader
does not even bother invoking the protocol in this case (as it notices
the misalignment), making it very hard for system firmware to work
around this by attempting to infer the intent of the caller.

So let's introduce a QEMU command line option to indicate that the
protocol should not be exposed at all on the first boot, which is when
the issue is triggered. (fbaa64.efi is broken but grubaa64.efi boots
fine)

  -fw_cfg opt/org.tianocore/UninstallMemAttrProtocolOnFirstBoot,string=y

Also introduce a fixed boolean PCD that sets the default.
