Joey Vagedes da21991953 BaseTools: GenFw: auto-set nxcompat flag
Automatically set the nxcompat flag in the DLL Characteristics field of
the Optional Header of the PE32+ image. For this flag to be set
automatically, the section alignment must be evenly divisible
by 4K (EFI_PAGE_SIZE) and no section must be executable and writable.

Adds a command line flag to GenFw, --nonxcompat, to ensure the
IMAGE_DLLCHARACTERISTICS_NX_COMPAT bit is not set, even if all
requirements are met. Updates the manual for GenFw to include the new
flag.
