[NTOS] Fixes for NtDisplayString().

- Require the user to have TCB privilege for using this function.
- Probe and capture the user-provided string (and avoid usermode-triggered BSODS ;-)
- Allocate the OEM-converted string in *NonPagedPool* because we are
  going to transmit the buffer to BOOTVID.
