In https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2842 clang support was
added by having users specify "make CXX=llvm" when building BaseTools.
The Makefile then sees that and sets CC=$(CLANG_BIN)clang and
CXX=$(CLANG_BIN)clang++. That requires that the executables 'clang' and
'clang++' exist and for example aren't named 'clang-17' and
'clang++-17'. Also, it's an unusual way of specifying the compiler,
since many users will expect to be able to override CC and CXX on the
make command line.
Rework the BaseTools Makefiles removing the 'BUILD_' prefix (BUILD_CC
and BUILD_CXX) and using the standard name 'LDFLAGS' instead of
'LFLAGS'. This allows clang to be used by running
'make -C BaseTools CC=clang CXX=clang++'.

BUILD_CPPFLAGS should be expanded before BUILD_CFLAGS. (The rule for C++
source files already does this, with BUILD_CPPFLAGS and BUILD_CXXFLAGS.)
This patch doesn't change behavior.

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.

GNU make built-in rule to Compiling C++ programs with
‘$(CXX) $(CPPFLAGS) $(CXXFLAGS) -c’.
To align to it, add empty BUILD_CXXFLAGS in cpp rule.
