PrmPkg/Application/PrmInfo: Add initial application
Adds a new UEFI application called "PrmInfo" that allows a user to display and test Platform Runtime Mechanism (PRM) modules. Execute the application help command for detailed usage instructions and examples of how to use the application: "PrmInfo -?" This application is intended to be helpful during PRM enabling by allowing the user to: 1. Confirm that their firmware port of the PRM infrastructure implemented in this package is functioning correctly. 2. Quickly get information about what PRM modules and handlers are present on a given system. 3. Quickly test PRM handlers without booting to a fully featured operating system. 4. Develop and exercise PRM handlers prior to the availability of an operating system that is PRM aware. Adds a brief section to Readme.md about the PrmInfo UEFI application with a link to allow the reader to find more information about the application if interested.
