OVMF: disable `sourceDebug` by default
`sourceDebug` enables a source-level debugger agent inside the UEFI code that can be leveraged via a certain bus (USB or serial for example) to debug the platform. See: https://github.com/tianocore/tianocore.github.io/wiki/SourceLevelDebugPkg for more information. `sourceDebug` is almost something you never want when you debug UEFI in a virtual machine. Debugging with GDB can be achieved via: https://github.com/tianocore/tianocore.github.io/wiki/How-to-debug-OVMF-with-QEMU-using-GDB.
