  Convert a Null-terminated Unicode decimal string to a value of type UINTN.

  The valid decimal digit character is in the range [0-9]. The function will

  [decimal digits]. The running zero in the beginning of [decimal digits] will
  be ignored. Then, the function stops at the first character that is a not a
  valid decimal character or a Null-terminator, whichever one comes first.

  If String is not aligned in a 16-bit boundary, then ASSERT().

  If String has no valid decimal digits in the above format, then 0 is stored
  at the location pointed to by Data.
  If the number represented by String exceeds the range defined by UINTN, then
  MAX_UINTN is stored at the location pointed to by Data.

  If EndPointer is not NULL, a pointer to the character that stopped the scan
  is stored at the location pointed to by EndPointer. If String has no valid
  decimal digits right after the optional pad spaces, the value of String is
  stored at the location pointed to by EndPointer.

  EFI_GUID.

  This function outputs a GUID value by interpreting the contents of
  the ASCII string specified by String. The format of the input
  ASCII string String consists of 36 characters, as follows:

  The pairs aa - pp are two characters in the range [0-9], [a-f] and
  [A-F], with each pair representing a single byte hexadecimal value.

  The mapping between String and the EFI_GUID structure is as follows:
                  aa          Data1[24:31]
                  bb          Data1[16:23]
