Instead of relying on the builtin linker script of GNU ld, which
may vary based on binutils version (which is not tightly coupled to
the GCC version) and linker command line options, introduce a linker
script for AArch64 to be used by all GCC/binutils versions.
The script is laid out such that two ELF sections .text and .data are
created that map onto the PE/COFF with the same names. By aligning
.data to the minimum alignment of .text, and by not adding any
additional padding -which is what LD's builtin linker script does- the
relative offset between .text and .data is retained after the PE/COFF
conversion. This should prevent problems with debuggers and other
tooling that are ELF based.
Also provided is an overlay linker script that increases the alignment
of .text and .data to 64 KB. This is intended for DXE_RUNTIME_DRIVER
modules, to make them compatible with the newly introduced
Properties Table feature.

This script is intended to assist with MASM to NASM syntax
conversions.
The output should be manually inspected and adjusted as needed, since
this script does not provide a perfect conversion.

This changes includes new scripts that breaks out some of the functionality in edksetup.bat and eliminates calling the toolsetup.bat file in BaseTools directory.
Edk2Setup.bat is to be used for testing. If no bugs are reported by the end of September, 2014, the file will be renamed to edksetup.bat.

GCC 4.9 may use 64-byte (0x40) alignment for data sections.
Therefore we use a different link script for GCC 4.9. The only
difference from the gcc4.4-ld-script is the alignment for data
sections.
When using the GCC48 toolchain with GCC 4.9, this error would be
encountered by GenFw:
> GenFw: ERROR 3000: Invalid
> Unsupported section alignment.
