OvmfPkg: Virtio: load used ring element strictly after loading used index
Enforce in-order execution of these steps even on not sequentially
consistent architectures, as discussed in [1]. These changes should be
unnecessary on x86 (the only architecture OVMF currently supports), but
they align the OVMF virtio code with the virtio specification and could be
necessary for future OVMF ports.
