Subject: [edk2-rfc] UEFI terminal console keyboard type extend for Putty

Hi everyone,

Putty is a popular terminal console software in windows and it support various types of terminal keyboard type. I would like to add most of the type support. Here is the key map info. Hope to get comments. Here is the type and mapping table:
Putty function key map:
  +=========+======+===========+=============+=============+=============+
  |         | EFI  |           |             |             |             |
  |         | Scan |           |             |  Normal     |             |
  |   KEY   | Code |  VT100+   | Xterm R6    |  VT400      | Linux       |

  | F11     | 0x15 | ESC O Z   | ESC [ 2 3 ~ | ESC [ 2 3 ~ | ESC [ 1 3 ~ |
  | F12     | 0x16 | ESC O [   | ESC [ 2 4 ~ | ESC [ 2 4 ~ | ESC [ 1 4 ~ |
  +=========+======+===========+=============+=============+=============+

For Xterm R6 F1 and F2, it is descripted as ESC+O+P and ESC+O+Q, but it doesn't work on UEFI shell. Same with the SCO mode. So I would ignore the unworkable key map.

Thanks,
Zhichao
