Oliver Smith-Denny c6ff778056 OvmfPkg: Drop ARM32 Support
edk2 is dropping support for the ARM32 architecture. This
commit removes ARM32 code from OvmfPkg. This drops irrelevant
VALID_ARCHITECTURES comments from infs that are not arch
specific.

Oliver Smith-Denny 1fb88ffe28 OvmfPkg: Remove OVMF IA32
This commit removes OVMF IA32 from edk2 per RFC
https://edk2.groups.io/g/devel/topic/rfc_remove_ovmf_ia32_and/114152215.

OVMF IA32 is a 32 bit only platform that no longer represents the vast
majority of physical platforms. The RFC details more reasoning in
much more depth.

OVMF IA32 will be kept in a branch off the edk2-stable202508 tag for
any long term consumers; it will receive build break updates only
(e.g. if an upstream submodule changes location).

Ard Biesheuvel 2632178bc6 OvmfPkg: add 'initrd' shell command to expose Linux initrd via device path
Add a new 'initrd' command to the UEFI Shell that allows any file that is
accessible to the shell to be registered as the initrd that is returned
when Linux's EFI stub loader invokes the LoadFile2 protocol on its special
vendor media device path.
