Clarify when error or warning messages are generated
for VOID* PCDs when VPD offset is not aligned.
Unicode string VPD PCDs must be 2-byte aligned.
Byte array {} VPD PCDs should be 8-byte aligned,
but is only a warning message if they are not 8-byte
aligned. All other data types only require
byte-alignment.
