   2   NULL PlatformSecureLib instance does NOT really detect whether a physical present
   3   user exists but return TRUE directly. This instance can be used to verify security
   4   related features during platform enabling and development. It should be replaced
   5   by a platform-specific method(e.g. Button pressed) in a real platform for product.

  20   This function provides a platform-specific method to detect whether the platform
  21   is operating by a physically present user.
  22
  23   Programmatic changing of platform security policy (such as disable Secure Boot,
  24   or switch between Standard/Custom Secure Boot mode) MUST NOT be possible during
  25   Boot Services or after exiting EFI Boot Services. Only a physically present user
  26   is allowed to perform these operations.
  27
  28   NOTE THAT: This function cannot depend on any EFI Variable Service since they are
  29   not available when this function is called in AuthenticateVariable driver.

  31   @retval  TRUE       The platform is operated by a physically present user.
  32   @retval  FALSE      The platform is NOT operated by a physically present user.
