[Qemu-devel] [Bug 1821884] [NEW] Extend uefi-test-tools to report SMBIOS location

[Igor]

Public bug reported:

UEFI helper app exposes the pointer to RSDP ACPI table that firmware allocates 
in guest's RAM
but it doesn't do so for SMBIOS tables. Hence bios table test would skip 
testing SMBIOS tables
to workaround shortcoming. This bug is a request to expose two new entry point 
fields (one for SMBIOS 2 and another for SMBIOS 3) so test could check SMBIOS 
tables when guest is started a with  UEFI firmware.
