+/** Parse the FieldList contained in the stream.
+
+ Create an object node for each field element parsed in the field list
+ available in the Stream, and add them to the variable list of arguments
+ of the FieldNode.
+
+ Nodes that can have a field list are referred as field nodes. They have the
+ AML_HAS_FIELD_LIST attribute.
+
+ According to the ACPI 6.3 specification, s20.2.5.2 "Named Objects Encoding",
+ field elements can be:
+ - NamedField := NameSeg PkgLength;
+ - ReservedField := 0x00 PkgLength;
+ - AccessField := 0x01 AccessType AccessAttrib;
+ - ConnectField := <0x02 NameString> | <0x02 BufferData>;
+ - ExtendedAccessField := 0x03 AccessType ExtendedAccessAttrib AccessLength.
+
+ A small set of opcodes describes the field elements. They are referred as
+ field opcodes. An AML_BYTE_ENCODING table has been created for field OpCodes.
+ Field elements:
+ - don't have a SubOpCode;
+ - have at most 3 fixed arguments (as opposed to 6 for standard AML objects);
+ - don't have a variable list of arguments;
+ - only the NamedField field element is part of the AML namespace.
+
+ ConnectField's BufferData is a buffer node containing a single
+ resource data element.
+ NamedField field elements don't have an AML OpCode. NameSeg starts with a
+ Char type and can thus be differentiated from the Opcodes for other fields.
+ A pseudo OpCode has been created to simplify the parser.
+
+ The branch created from parsing a field node is as:
+ (FieldNode)
+ \
+ |- [FixedArg[0]][FixedArg[1]] # Fixed Arguments
+ |- {(FieldElement[0])->(FieldElement[1])->...)} # Variable Arguments
+
+ With FieldElement[n] being one of NamedField, ReservedField, AccessField,
+ ConnectField, ExtendedAccessField.
+
+ @param [in] FieldNode Field node.
+ Must have the AML_HAS_FIELD_LIST
+ attribute.
+ @param [in] FStream Forward stream pointing to a field list.
+ The stream must not be at its end.
+ @param [in] NameSpaceRefList List of namespace reference nodes,
+ allowing to associate an absolute
+ path to a node in the tree.
+
+ @retval EFI_SUCCESS The function completed successfully.
+ @retval EFI_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL No space left in the buffer.
+ @retval EFI_INVALID_PARAMETER Invalid parameter.
+ @retval EFI_OUT_OF_RESOURCES Could not allocate memory.
