The modifications includes:
1) Correct the issue that build tool generate UINT8 array for unicode string type PCD, it maybe cause alignment issue. Now build tool will generate UINT16 array for unicode string type PCD.
2) Merge FdfParser.py updates to FdfParserLite.py
3) Replace EFI_IMAGE_NT_HEADERS with EFI_IMAGE_OPTIONAL_HEADER_UNION. (GenFv)
The code referencing EFI_IMAGE_NT_HEADERS has been modified to
refer to EFI_IMAGE_OPTIONAL_HEADER_UNION => Pe32/Pe32Plus.
4) Remove definitions of build machine specific types.
Remove EFI_IMAGE_OPTIONAL_HEADER, EFI_IMAGE_NT_HEADERS,
EFI_IMAGE_NT_OPTIONAL_HDR_MAGIC, and EFI_IMAGE_MACHINE_TYPE_SUPPORTED,
since these were defined differently based on the architecture
of the build machine. The BaseTools should support the edk2
supported processor architectures and not depend on the architecture
of the build platform.
5) Added support for the ARM processor type
Added RVCT as a ToolChainFamily (Real View Compiler Tools from ARM)
Enabled FixedAtBuild 32-bit PCDs to be used from GCC or RVCT assembler.
Updated GenFw to support RVCT ELF images and removed #ifdefs for ELF. Also made ELF to PE/COFF features available on all supported build targets for the tools by adding some FreeBSD ELF headers.
Updated GenFv to support the ARM reset vector in ZeroBytes of the FV header.

The modifications are:
1. Support BuildRuleFamily attribute of tool chain tag to be filtered build rule.
2. Enhance GenFds tool to get the default PcdValue from DEC file.
3. Enhance AutoGen to generate library function constructors for SEC type module.

The modification is add additional checking for whether need renew the immediate file workspace database, the renew reason maybe:
The renew reason maybe:
1) If user force to renew;
2) If user do not force renew, and
a) If the time of last modified python source is newer than database file;
b) If the time of last modified frozen executable file is newer than database file, the executable file is build.exe in window and build in Linux/Unix/OSX
