REF:https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2457

This commit fixes an offset calculation that is used to write the
VarErrorFlag UEFI variable to the UEFI variable runtime cache.

Currently a physical address is used instead of an offset. This
commit changes the offset to zero with a length of the entire
non-volatile variable store so the entire non-volatile variable
store buffer in SMRAM (with the variable update modification) is
copied to the runtime variable cache. This follows the same pattern
used in other SynchronizeRuntimeVariableCache () calls for
consistency.

* Observable symptom: An exception in SMM will most likely occur
  due to the invalid memory reference when the VarErrorFlag variable
  is written. The variable is most commonly written when the UEFI
  variable store is full.

* The issue only occurs when the variable runtime cache is enabled
  by the following PCD being set to TRUE:
  gEfiMdeModulePkgTokenSpaceGuid.PcdEnableVariableRuntimeCache
