[edk2-devel] [PATCH v3 1/1] ShellPkg: Export default shell delay as PCD

From: Tomas Pilar <quic_tpilar at quicinc.com>

Create PcdShellDefaultDelay to configure the default
delay the shell provides for the user at the start time
if the user wishes to cancel the execution of a potential
startup script.

The shell application already allows the user to override
the delay default value by specifying the -delay cmdline
argument. This however cannot be used when loading the
shell application using direct boot or when integrating
the shell into the platform firmware build.

Thus, a PCD can be easily configurerd by the developer
either at build time, or even at runtime.
