[edk2-devel] [PATCH 0/4] Add a pcd PcdBootManagerInBootOrder to control whether BootManager is in BootOrder

[Gao, Zhichao]

REF: https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1979

Add a pcd to control whether the BootManager is in BootOrder variable.
>From a UI perspective, it never want to see a Front Page UI in the boot
order list. So add a pcd PcdBootManagerInBootOrder to control it. If it
is FALSE, the BootManager App wouldn't be added to BootOrder. And it
wouldn't be shown in the BootManagerMenuApp.

Notes:
BootManager means the application with file guid PcdBootManagerMenuFile.
It's default value is EEC25BDC-67F2-4D95-B1D5-F81B2039D11D, and users
usually change the pcd to UiApp.inf's file guid. BootManagerMenuApp means
uefi application with file guid EEC25BDC-67F2-4D95-B1D5-F81B2039D11D.
