ArmPkg: Introduce the PCD PcdDebuggerExceptionSupport

The Exception Vector can be set before installing the CPU DXE driver to add
debugger support at the early stage of the firmware initialization.
If no one has touched the exception vector prior to the CPU DXE then the Vector
might contain non zero data.
