Problem statement:
The current build system requires that a PCD must use the same access
method for all modules. A Binary Module may use a different PCD access
method than: 1.A source tree build it is integrated into. 2.Other Binary
Modules in platform build that use the same PCD.
Solution:
1. Source build:
No change. PCDs must use the same access method for building all Source
Modules.
2. Mixed Source & Binary Builds or Binary Only Builds:
1) Source Modules - No changes
2) Module that is interpreted as a Binary Module
a.DSC file may optionally override default value of PatchableInModule
PCDs in scope of Binary Module.
b.DSC file must declare DynamicEx PCD subtype for all DynamicEx PCDs
from Binary Modules.
c.FDF file must list Binary Module INF
Build update:
1. PCDs in a binary module are permitted to use the PatchableInModule
or DynamicEx access methods (the Binary INF clearly identifies the PCD
access method for each PCD). The build must support binary modules that
use the same or different PCD access method than the Source INFs or
other Binary INFs.
2. Build report list PCDs that have mixed PCD access methods.

this patch add new feature to support override PCD value on the command
line. The value from the command line is the highest priority.
1.Add option(--pcd) to support both PcdName and TokenSpaceGuild.PcdName
2.For void* type PCD, use following format:
cstring PCD: --pcd PcdName="string"
unicodestring PCD: --pcd PcdName=L"string"
CArray PCD: --pcd PcdName=B"{0x1, 0x2}"
3.Build Report, use *B to show the PCD value was overridden in the
command line.
4.Error Condition:
Report error if the PCD is not found
Report error if the PcdName is found under multiple different TokenSpaceGuid
Report error if PCD value syntax is incorrect
Report error if void* type PCD value exceed its max size

1.BaseTool add ATTRIBUTE (+/-RT, RO) support in PCD declaration in DSC file
2.BaseTool collect valid PCD value in DEC file and generate data base for runtime sanity check
3.BaseTool support SetPcd error.
