<id>urn:sha1:01f75b3927b8d98fa0a6fbfb6a79420985f107f0</id>
<content type='text'>
Replace traditional `#ifndef`/`#define`/`#endif` include guards with
`#pragma` once.

`#pragma once` is a widely supported preprocessor directive that
prevents header files from being included multiple times. It is
supported by all toolchains used to build edk2: GCC, Clang/LLVM, and
MSVC.

Compared to macro-based include guards, `#pragma once`:

- Eliminates the risk of macro name collisions or copy/paste errors
  where two headers inadvertently use the same guard macro.
- Eliminate inconsistency in the way include guard macros are named
  (e.g., some files use `__FILE_H__`, others use `FILE_H_`, etc.).
- Reduces boilerplate (three lines replaced by one).
- Avoids polluting the macro namespace with guard symbols.
- Can improve build times as the preprocessor can skip re-opening the
  file entirely, rather than re-reading it to find the matching
  `#endif` ("multiple-include optimization").
  - Note that some compilers may already optimize traditional include
    guards, by recognzining the idiomatic pattern.

This change is made acknowledging that overall portability of the
code will technically be reduced, as `#pragma once` is not part of the
C/C++ standards.

However, this is considered acceptable given:

1. edk2 already defines a subset of supported compilers in
   BaseTools/Conf/tools_def.template, all of which have supported
   `#pragma once` for over two decades.
2. There have been concerns raised to the project about inconsistent
   include guard naming and potential macro collisions.

Approximate compiler support dates:

- MSVC: Supported since Visual C++ 4.2 (1996)
- GCC: Supported since 3.4 (2004)
  (http://gnu.ist.utl.pt/software/gcc/gcc-3.4/changes.html)
- Clang (LLVM based): Since initial release in 2007

<id>urn:sha1:5a8411a7b0382e5f5b2412d2fb7e684ac10723b2</id>
<content type='text'>
Add the SMBIOS Table generator code to the DynamicTablesPkg.

This change includes adding new logic to the DynamicTableManager
to process and add SMBIOS tables and augmenting the existing SMBIOS
Factory generator to include installing multiple SMBIOS tables.

The dynamic table factory dxe implements the dynamic table
factory protocol. It also implements the ACPI, SMBIOS and
DT table factories. The table generators register themselves
with the respective table factories and the factories are
responsible for instantiating instances of the generators
to build the firmware tables.
