d73615b24b Revert "ArmPlatformPkg,EmbeddedPkg,MdeModulePkg: Move RealTimeClockLib ..."
This reverts commit 57230fff6b.

RealTimeClockLib is not a generic library class that is intended to be
used widely to get access to the RTC when the associated runtime
services are not available in the calling context.

The purpose of RealTimeClockLib is to abstract the underlying hardware
access from the generic RealTimeClockRuntimeDxe driver, which backs the
runtime services.

This means it does not belong in a different package; it belongs in the
same package as the driver.

fe52108211 EmbeddedPkg/VirtualRealTimeClockLib: Use SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH
Change VirtualRealTimeClockLib.inf to use SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH
instead of Linux only shell command. This allows this library
to be used in Windows build environments.

57230fff6b ArmPlatformPkg,EmbeddedPkg,MdeModulePkg: Move RealTimeClockLib header
RealTimeClockLib is an architectural implementation that is not
restricted to the embedded segment or any platform in particular.

So the header has been moved to MdeModulePkg.
And the package has been added to the relevant INF files.

6852f6984b EmbeddedPkg/VirtualRealTimeClockLib: Support SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH
RISC-V ovmf used VirtualRealTimeClockLib but the default epoch is a
compilation time. It causes that the RISC-V ovmf binary image is NOT
reproducible.

This patch added the support of SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH by printenv command.
If SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH be found then we use it as BUILD_EPOCH. Otherwise
we run date command for setting BUILD_EPOCH.

For distributions want a reproducible RISC-V ovmf image, they should
export SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH environment variable before building ovmf.

64a17fadcb EmbeddedPkg/Library: Add VirtualRealTimeClockLib
This is designed to be used on platforms where a a real RTC is not
available and relies on an RtcEpochSeconds variable having been set or,
if that is not the case, falls back to using the epoch embedded at
compilation time.

Note that, in order to keep things simple for the setting of the
compilation time variable, only GCC environments with UNIX-like shells
and where a 'date' command is available are meant to be supported for
now.
