MdeModulePkg: document workaround for EFI_RUNTIME_EVENT_ENTRY PI spec bug
The PI spec (v1.7) correctly specifies "EFI_RUNTIME_EVENT_ENTRY.Event" in
natural language, but the field type in the structure definition itself is
wrong -- it should be EFI_EVENT, not (EFI_EVENT*).
This spec bug is likely unfixable for compatibility reasons, and so edk2
works it around already. We should clearly document the workaround.
Functionally, this patch is a no-op.
(I've also requested a non-normative (informative) clarification for the
PI spec: <https://mantis.uefi.org/mantis/view.php?id=2017>.)
