UefiCpuPkg/CpuDxe: Add stackless assembly AP entry points
The AP startup code simply jumps into this code with the CpuDxe driver
without setting up a stack for the processor.
Therefore, this code must setup the stack before calling into C code.
This is the basic flow:
* AP enters CpuDxe driver code (AsmApEntryPoint) without stack
- AP grabs a lock
- AP sets up stack
- AP calls CpuMp.c:ApEntryPointInC
- If ApEntryPointInC returns, the lock is freed, and another AP may
run
- The AP C code may call AsmApDoneWithCommonStack to indicate that
the AP is no longer using the stack, and another may therefore
proceed to use the stack and then call ApEntryPointInC
