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

This interface provides an abstration layer to allow MM modules to access
requested areas that are outside of MMRAM. On MM model that blocks all
non-MMRAM accesses, areas requested through this API will be mapped or
unblocked for accessibility inside MM environment.

For MM modules that need to access regions outside of MMRAMs, the agents
that set up these regions are responsible for invoking this API in order
for these memory areas to be accessible from inside MM.

Example usages:
1. To enable runtime cache feature for variable service, Variable MM
module will need to access the allocated runtime buffer. Thus the agent
sets up these buffers, VariableSmmRuntimeDxe, will need to invoke this
API to make these regions accessible by Variable MM.
2. For TPM ACPI table to communicate to physical presence handler, the
corresponding NVS region has to be accessible from inside MM. Once the
NVS region are assigned, it needs to be unblocked thourgh this API.
