Subject: [PATCH v2 1/1] MdeModulePkg/Variable: Check EFI_MEMORY_RUNTIME attribute before setting it

Set the EFI_MEMORY_RUNTIME attribute in FtwNotificationEvent() only if the attribute is not already present. This will ensure that the attributes set by the platform drivers (e.g Ovmf pflash) is not lost.
