Hi. Ray
Based on Dov Murik Comments to take the python script
changes separately,
I have filed the Bugzilla for that separately.
https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3506
verified the binary. More details are in Bugzilla.

OVMF's ResetVector is including the UefiCpuPkg's ResetVector. So, OVMF owners
please do evaluate the impact.
I think this change assumes platform owner knows which format of page table
should be chosen in build time.

I don't
This change generates the reset vector binary which only contains 1G page
table. If a platform doesn't support 1G page table, this will cause system hang.
To Ard and Jordan,
Can you evaluate whether this change impacts OVMF?
To Prince,
Can you evaluate whether this change impacts

X64 Reset Vector Code can access the memory range till 4GB using the
Linear-Address Translation to a 2-MByte Page, when user wants to use
more than 4G using 2M Page it will leads to use more number of Page
table entries. using the 1-GByte
