UefiCpuPkg hosts a number of modules (SMM infrastructure,
MP-initialization) that may behave differently enough between
virtualization guests and physical boards that they merit regression
testing and review specifically from a virtualization perspective.

Add Laszlo as a UefiCpuPkg reviewer (not maintainer) so that he be CC'd on
all UefiCpuPkg patches.

> R: Package Reviewer: Cc address for patches and questions. Reviewers
>    help maintainers review code, but don't have push access.

Notes:
    Recently there have been two UefiCpuPkg patches on the list that have
    each spent hardly more than 24 hours in review:
    
    * d76c2da8d50d ("MdeModulePkg/PiSmmCore: Install Protocol when S3 resume
      finished.", 2017-10-11),
    
    * 0594ec417c89 ("UefiCpuPkg/MpInitLib: Enhance waiting for AP
      initialization logic.", 2017-10-23).
    
    Both times, I was out of office, and didn't get a chance to comment. The
    first commit broke OVMF:
    
      http://mid.mail-archive.com/8d678707-fb07-0326-acfd-878bb7e8c5d6@redhat.com
      https://github.com/tianocore/edk2/commit/152e8d7670d5
    
    while the second commit has a good chance to break OVMF on at least some
    virt hosts:
    
      https://lists.01.org/pipermail/edk2-devel/2017-October/016309.html
    
    I was not CC'd either time. Had I been CC'd, the automated out-of-office
    reply that I always set up would have been received on the submitter's
    side, and I could have tested and/or commented on the patches in
    question, before they were pushed.
    
    My intent as a UefiCpuPkg Reviewer is to be inserted in the patch review
    process for UefiCpuPkg. I should be explicitly CC'd; and my feedback
    should please be waited upon. I think I've proved myself reasonably
    responsive; I intend to follow up in a few days every time. My review
    should definitely not replace Eric's review, but I'd like to get an
    *official* chance to raise questions before a patch is pushed. Whenever
    I have nothing to add, I'll send an Acked-by. Thanks.
