OvmfPkg: add 'initrd' shell command to expose Linux initrd via device path
Add a new 'initrd' command to the UEFI Shell that allows any file that is
accessible to the shell to be registered as the initrd that is returned
when Linux's EFI stub loader invokes the LoadFile2 protocol on its special
vendor media device path.

+" \r\n"

+" \r\n"
+" FileName - Specifies a file to register as initrd.\r\n"
+" -u - Unregisters any previously registered initrd files.\r\n"

+" \r\n"
+"NOTES:\r\n"
+" 1. Only a single file can be loaded as initrd at any given time. Using the\r\n"
+" command twice with a <FileName> option will result in the first file to\r\n"
+" be unloaded again, regardless of whether the second invocation succeeded\r\n"
+" or not.\r\n"
+" 2. The initrd is not unloaded when the shell exits, and will remain active\r\n"
+" until it is unloaded again by a different invocation of the shell.\r\n"
+" Consumers of the LoadFile2 protocol on the LINUX_EFI_INITRD_MEDIA_GUID\r\n"
+" device path that are started via means other than the shell will be able\r\n"
+" to locate the protocol and invoke it.\r\n"
