NetworkPkg/IScsiDxe: clean up "ISCSI_CHAP_AUTH_DATA.OutChallengeLength"
The "ISCSI_CHAP_AUTH_DATA.OutChallenge" field is declared as a UINT8 array with ISCSI_CHAP_AUTH_MAX_LEN (1024) elements. However, when the challenge is generated and formatted, only ISCSI_CHAP_RSP_LEN (16) octets are used in the array. Change the array size to ISCSI_CHAP_RSP_LEN, and remove the (now unused) ISCSI_CHAP_AUTH_MAX_LEN macro. Remove the "ISCSI_CHAP_AUTH_DATA.OutChallengeLength" field, which is superfluous too. Most importantly, explain in a new comment *why* tying the challenge size to the digest size (ISCSI_CHAP_RSP_LEN) has always made sense. (See also Linux kernel commit 19f5f88ed779, "scsi: target: iscsi: tie the challenge length to the hash digest size", 2019-11-06.) For sure, the motivation that the new comment now explains has always been there, and has always been the same, for IScsiDxe; it's just that now we spell it out too. No change in peer-visible behavior.
