From: Alexei Fedorov <Alexei.Fedorov@arm.com>

Table 13 of UEFI Specification 2.7A describes Timeout
global variable as NV (non-volatile), however
gEfiMdePkgTokenSpaceGuid.PcdPlatformBootTimeOut
is defined in [PcdsFixedAtBuild.common] section of
edk2-platforms\Platform\ARM\VExpressPkg\ArmVExpress.dsc.inc.
This prevents Timeout value from being persistent across
resets and power cycles, see BdsEntry() code
in MdeModulePkg\Universal\BdsDxe\BdsEntry.c:
  //
  // Initialize L"Timeout" EFI global variable.
  //
  BootTimeOut = PcdGet16 (PcdPlatformBootTimeOut);

This patch fixes the above issue by mapping PcdPlatformBootTimeOut
to global NV variable "Timeout":
[PcdsDynamicHii.common.DEFAULT]
  gEfiMdePkgTokenSpaceGuid.PcdPlatformBootTimeOut|L"Timeout"|gEfiGlobalVariableGuid|0x0|10
