[PATCH 0/2 v4] Add ESRT and test ESRT creation

The following 2 commits add the ESRT and provide a test of the
functionality.

The first commit adds the ESRT as defined in the UEFI 2.8 specification.
An empty ESRT is created during the execution of the efi_init_obj_list().
The ESRT is updated when:
1) a FMP protocol is installed in the system: this will add the
corresponding entries to the ESRT.
2) a capsule is installed via UpdateCapsule: this should update
entries already present in the ESRT.

This implementation of the ESRT creation takes input from FMP only.
It is assumed that the FMP will maintain the following values across
reboot:
- LastAttemptVersion.
- LastAttemptStatus.

The second commit enables testing the ESRT creation in the sandbox
platform. That commit is composed of 2 tests.
- Test 1 executes from the u-boot shell with "ut lib".
- Test 2 executes in the pytest environment.

Patch v4:
- update stale [Patch 1/2 v3] commit message.

Patch v3:
- Address v2 comments.

Patch v2:
- The ESRT is now regenerated from scratch at every FMP EVT_NOTIFY_SIGNAL
and whenever a capsule is updated.
- Extended TestEfiCapsuleFirmwareFit::test_efi_capsule_fw3 to verify
that the ESRT is correctly populated after an UpdateCapsule.
- Addressed v1 comments.

Patch v1:
- reworked the ESRT creation code, allowing table to resize as
FMPs are installed.
- registered a callback for the FMP protocol install.
- Created a unit test running on the sandbox platform.
