(1) I suggest / request that we put "remote attestation" somewhere in
the above file-top comment.

(3) Please generate a new PLATFORM_GUID for this new platform with
"uuidgen".

(4) SEV-ES doesn't support (to my knowledge) SMM, so we should strip
everything dependent on SMM_REQUIRE being TRUE (DSC and FDF files both).

(5) Given that SMM cannot protect Secure Boot, SECURE_BOOT_ENABLE too
should be assumed FALSE, and stuff dependent on SECURE_BOOT_ENABLE being
TRUE should be stripped.

(6) My understanding is that netboot with this platform is never
desired. If that's the case, then please remove:
- all the NETWORK_* flags,
- the dependent DSC/FDF snippets,
- the gEfiNetworkPkgTokenSpaceGuid.* PCD defaults,
- and (in particular) all !include directives that refer to NetworkPkg/*

My goal with the above trimming is two-fold:

- avoid an implication for platform builders that they can meaningfully
tweak the -D flags for this platform,

- cut down on the size of the new DSC/FDF files (given that the above
fruits seem to hang low).

Thanks
Laszlo
