UefiCpuPkg/CpuDxe: fix bad boot performance
If features like memory profile, protection and heap guard are enabled, a lot of more memory page attributes update actions will happen than usual. An unnecessary sync of CR0.WP setting among APs will then cause worse performance in memory allocation action. Removing the calling of SyncMemoryPageAttributesAp() in function DisableReadOnlyPageWriteProtect and EnableReadOnlyPageWriteProtect can fix this problem. In DEBUG build case, the boot performance can be boosted from 11 minute to 6 minute.
