qemu uses the etc/e820 fw_cfg file not only for memory, but
also for reservations.  Handle reservations by adding resource
descriptor hobs for them.

A typical qemu configuration has a small reservation between
lapic and flash:

   # sudo cat /proc/iomem
   [ ... ]
   fee00000-fee00fff : Local APIC
   feffc000-feffffff : Reserved          <= HERE
   ffc00000-ffffffff : Reserved
   [ ... ]

On newer versions of Qemu, this patch causes a boot failure on my
AMD system with the following output:

...

Doing some bisecting, before Qemu patch

   8504f129450b ("i386/pc: relocate 4g start to 1T where applicable")

this issue wasn't observed. And before this OVMF patch, the newer version
of Qemu doesn't have an issue.

Also, if I add host-phys-bits=true to the Qemu -cpu parameter, then
the issue isn't observed regardless of Qemu/OVMF level.

I'm hoping someone has an understanding of what is going on and what
can be done to fix it.

Thanks,
Tom
