OvmfPkg: BDS: drop custom boot timeout, revert to IntelFrameworkModulePkg's
PlatformBdsEnterFrontPage() already implements a keypress wait (for
entering the setup utility at boot) with a nice progress bar, only OVMF
has not been using it.
Removing our custom code and utilizing PlatformBdsEnterFrontPage()'s
builtin wait has the following benefits:
- It simplifies OVMF's BDS code.
- Because now we call PlatformBdsEnterFrontPage() unconditionally, it
actually has a chance to look at the EFI_OS_INDICATIONS_BOOT_TO_FW_UI
bit of the "OsIndications" variable, improving compliance with the UEFI
specification. References:

- http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.bios.tianocore.devel/10487
- The progress bar looks nice. (And it keeps the earlier behavior intact,
when the user presses a key on the TianoCore splash screen.)
In any case, we set the timeout to 0 (which doesn't show the progress
bar and proceeds to the boot options immediately) in order to keep the
boot time down.
