In my fork of edk2 I've added support for using StdLib without the Shell. It's quite hacky(setenv/getenv are stubs, no File IO and maybe other things hidden by linker GC and me not using all features).
But depending on which StdLib features you need this can work pretty good. here's the commit that does the magic: https://github.com/efidroid/edk2/commit/bf7a296718486bafaf774ea8bcf187c162c3c167 and this is how you convert a Shell project to a NonShell one: https://github.com/efidroid/uefi_apps_EFIDroidUi/commit/23f0fa08108b8f852564fae733c6a7bce62e2070 as you can see it works by using StdLib with different libraries/cflags so you have to compile your driver separately if there are other modules which need the normal StdLib.
