MdePkg: Update comments for GetNextVariableName to follow UEFI 2.7
"The size must be large enough to fit input string supplied in VariableName buffer" is added in the description for VariableNameSize. And two cases of EFI_INVALID_PARAMETER are added. 1. The input values of VariableName and VendorGuid are not a name and GUID of an existing variable. 2. Null-terminator is not found in the first VariableNameSize bytes of the input VariableName buffer. This patch is to update comments for GetNextVariableName to follow them.
