O-Subject: [RHEL-8.3.0 edk2 PATCH 1/3] OvmfPkg/QemuKernelLoaderFsDxe: suppress error on no "-kernel" in silent aa64 build (RH)

If the "-kernel" QEMU option is not used, then QemuKernelLoaderFsDxe
should return EFI_NOT_FOUND, so that the DXE Core can unload it. However,
the associated error message, logged by the DXE Core to the serial
console, is not desired in the silent edk2-aarch64 build, given that the
absence of "-kernel" is nothing out of the ordinary. Therefore, return
success and stay resident. The wasted guest RAM still gets freed after
ExitBootServices().
(Inspired by RHEL-8.1.0 commit aaaedc1e2cfd.)
