The EFI_RNG_PROTOCOL can rely on the RngLib. The RngLib has multiple
implementations, some of them are unsafe (e.g. BaseRngLibTimerLib).
To allow the RngDxe to detect when such implementation is used,
a GetRngGuid() function is added in a following patch.
Prepare GetRngGuid() return values and add a gEfiRngAlgorithmArmRndr
to describe a Rng algorithm accessed through Arm's RNDR instruction.
[1] states that the implementation of this algorithm should be
compliant to NIST SP900-80. The compliance is not guaranteed.
