[edk2] [patch] MdeModulePkg/ReportStatusCodeLib: Avoid using AllocatePool if possible

[Dandan Bi]

From: Max Knutsen <maknu...@microsoft.com>

REF: https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1114

When report status code with ExtendedData data,
and the extended data can fit in the local static buffer,
there is no need to use AllocatePool to hold the ExtendedData data.

This patch is just to do the enhancement to avoid using AllocatePool.
