With Python3, the dict.value() method returns an iterator.
If a dictionary is updated while an iterator on its keys is used,
a RuntimeError is generated.
Converting the iterator to a list() forces a copy of the mutable
keys in an immutable list which can be safely iterated.
Commit f8d11e5a4a converted various uses but missed one:
When specifying multiple BUILDTARGET, the first target builds
successfully, but then the PGen.BuildDatabase._CACHE_ dictionary is
updated, and accessing the next target triggers a RuntimeError.
Convert this iterator to an immutable list, to solve this build error:
$ build -a IA32 -t GCC5 -b RELEASE -b NOOPT -p OvmfPkg/OvmfPkgIa32.dsc
[...]
Processing meta-data ...
build.py...
: error C0DE: Unknown fatal error when processing [OvmfPkg/OvmfPkgIa32.dsc]

In 9c2d68c0a2 the build tools default to the python version provided
by the ${PYTHON} environment variable, however the Python3 transition is
not functional before d943b0c339. f8d11e5a4a falls between the
previous two.
