efi variable store implementation in rust

Project goals:

Provide a efi variable store implementation for SVSM.
Replace the current qemu variable store implementation.

What is there:

core variable store implementation.
support for variable locking and variable policies.
partial support for authenticated variables + secure boot.
parser for EFI_MM_COMMUNICATE protocol buffers.
parser for json variable store format used by qemu.
code to parse and replay EFI_MM_COMMUNICATE protocol traces.
test cases and test utilities.

What is needed still:

full support for authenticated variables (needs pkcs7 signature verification).
support for persistent variables in svsm (needs svsm storage support).
better documentation.
more test cases.

Features

std: Enables support for the standard library. Used for test cases.
json: Enables read/write variables from/to JSON format, using serde. Used for test cases.
sbtest: Enable support for booting test kernel builds in secure boot mode (include Red Hat Test Certifying CA in db).
