ArmPkg/UncachedMemoryAllocationLib: set XP bit via CPU arch protocol
Commit e7b24ec9785d ("ArmPkg/UncachedMemoryAllocationLib: map uncached allocations non-executable") adds code that manipulates the GCD memory space attributes of a newly allocated uncached region without checking whether this region expose these attributes in its capabilities mask. Given that the intent is to remove executable permissions from the region, this is a fairly pointless exercise to begin with, regardless of whether it is correct or not. The reason is that RO/XP memory attributes in the GCD memory space map or the UEFI memory map are completely disconnected from the actual mapping permissions used in the page tables. So instead, invoke the CPU arch protocol directly, and add the non-exec attributes in the page tables directly.
