acpi: add ACPI memory clear interface
The interface is described in the "TCG Platform Reset Attack Mitigation Specification", chapter 6 "ACPI _DSM Function". According to Laszlo, it's not so easy to implement in OVMF, he suggested to do it in qemu instead. See specification documentation for more details, and next commit for memory clear on reset handling. The underlying TCG specification is accessible from the following page. https://trustedcomputinggroup.org/resource/pc-client-work-group-platform-reset-attack-mitigation-specification-version-1-0/ This patch implements version 1.0.
