gcc-8 (which is part of Fedora 28) enables the new warning
"-Wstringop-overflow" in "-Wall". This warning is documented in detail at
<https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Warning-Options.html>; the
introduction says
> Warn for calls to string manipulation functions such as memcpy and
> strcpy that are determined to overflow the destination buffer.
It breaks the BaseTools build with:
> GenVtf.c: In function 'ConvertVersionInfo':
> GenVtf.c:132:7: error: 'strncpy' specified bound depends on the length
> of the source argument [-Werror=stringop-overflow=]
> strncpy (TemStr + 4 - Length, Str, Length);
> ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
> GenVtf.c:130:14: note: length computed here
> Length = strlen(Str);
> ^~~~~~~~~~~
It is a false positive because, while the bound equals the length of the
source argument, the destination pointer is moved back towards the
beginning of the destination buffer by the same amount (and this amount is
range-checked first, so we can't precede the start of the dest buffer).
Replace both strncpy() calls with memcpy().

Add checks to ensure when the destination string buffer is of fixed
size, the strcpy/strcat functions calls will not access beyond the
boundary.

ARCH is too generic. It may cause confuse of target arch or host arch.
To be clarified, replace it with HOST_ARCH in BaseTools C Makefile.

The commit makes the following refinements in GenVtf source codes to
avoid VS2010/VS2012 build failure:
1. Refines coding style to declare local variables at the beginning of a
code block in function 'main'.

Function snprintf() is not supported in Visual Studio 2013 or older
version. The commit replaces the use of snprintf() with sprintf() to avoid
build failure for VS compilers.

String width is not specified for '%s' specifier in the format string for
scanf functions.
This commit now specifies the string length for '%s' in format strings
according to the size of receiving buffers.

Format specification '%x' for scanf expects type 'int *', modify the type
of the relating variable to 'int' to keep them matched.
