CpuException: Add InitializeSeparateExceptionStacks

Today InitializeCpuExceptionHandlersEx is called from three modules:
1. DxeCore (links to DxeCpuExceptionHandlerLib)
    DxeCore expects it initializes the IDT entries as well as
    assigning separate stacks for #DF and #PF.
2. CpuMpPei (links to PeiCpuExceptionHandlerLib)
   and CpuDxe (links to DxeCpuExceptionHandlerLib)
    It's called for each thread for only assigning separate stacks for
    #DF and #PF. The IDT entries initialization is skipped because
    caller sets InitData->X64.InitDefaultHandlers to FALSE.

Additionally, SecPeiCpuExceptionHandlerLib, SmmCpuExceptionHandlerLib
also implement such API and the behavior of the API is simply to initialize
IDT entries only.

Because it mixes the IDT entries initialization and separate stacks
assignment for certain exception handlers together, in order to know
whether the function call only initializes IDT entries, or assigns stacks,
we need to check:
1. value of InitData->X64.InitDefaultHandlers
2. library instance

This patch cleans up the code to separate the stack assignment to a new API:
InitializeSeparateExceptionStacks().

Only when caller calls the new API, the separate stacks are assigned.
With this change, the SecPei and Smm instance can return unsupported which
gives caller a very clear status.

The old API InitializeCpuExceptionHandlersEx() is removed in this patch.
Because no platform module is consuming the old API, the impact is none.

 /**

-  Initializes all CPU exceptions entries with optional extra initializations.

+  Setup separate stacks for certain exception handlers.

 

-  By default, this method should include all functionalities implemented by

-  InitializeCpuExceptionHandlers(), plus extra initialization works, if any.

-  This could be done by calling InitializeCpuExceptionHandlers() directly

-  in this method besides the extra works.

+  InitData is optional and processor arch dependent.

 

-  InitData is optional and its use and content are processor arch dependent.

-  The typical usage of it is to convey resources which have to be reserved

-  elsewhere and are necessary for the extra initializations of exception.

+  @param[in]  InitData      Pointer to data optional for information about how

+                            to assign stacks for certain exception handlers.

 

-  @param[in]  VectorInfo    Pointer to reserved vector list.

-  @param[in]  InitData      Pointer to data optional for extra initializations

-                            of exception.

-

-  @retval EFI_SUCCESS             The exceptions have been successfully

-                                  initialized.

-  @retval EFI_INVALID_PARAMETER   VectorInfo or InitData contains invalid

-                                  content.

+  @retval EFI_SUCCESS             The stacks are assigned successfully.

   @retval EFI_UNSUPPORTED         This function is not supported.
