MdePkg-SmmMemLib: Enhance SmmIsBufferOutsideSmmValid() check for fixed comm buffer.
This patch adds more check in SmmIsBufferOutsideSmmValid(), to make sure that SMM communication buffer is only EfiReservedMemoryType/EfiRuntimeServicesCode/ EfiRuntimeServicesData/EfiACPIMemoryNVS. So that the communication buffer will not touch any OS memory. The assumption is that a platform reports valid SMM communication buffer at EndOfDxe, because EndOfDxe is last hook point that SMM code can call-out to get memory map information. A platform MUST finish SMM communication buffer allocation before EndOfDxe. If a DXE or OS driver need do communication after EndOfDxe, it can either allocate SMM communication buffer before EndOfDxe and save it, or consume EDKII_PI_SMM_COMMUNICATION_REGION_TABLE table to get general fixed comm buffer. This is designed to meet Microsoft WSMT table definition on FIXED_COMM_BUFFERS requirement.
