EmbeddedPkg/DmaLib: add routine to allocate aligned buffers
DmaLib's purpose is to manage memory that is shared between the host and DMA capable devices. In some cases, this requires a larger alignment than page size, and we currently don't cater for that in DmaLib. So add a variant of DmaAllocateBuffer () that takes an alignment parameter.
