commit 17bd834eb5 ("BaseTools: Factorize GCC flags")
makes GCC48_ALL_CC_FLAGS inherit from GCC_ALL_CC_FLAGS.
GCC_ALL_CC_FLAGS contains the '-Os' flag.
The latest flag in a command line overrides the previous
optimization option. This allows more specific build
configuration to override the inherited '-Os' flag.
If a build configuration includes GCC48_ALL_CC_FLAGS,
hard-coded '-Os' options are not necessary anymore.
Remove them.

Even though the presence of the 'packed' pragma should be a strong hint
that the misaligned placement of a GUID in a struct is intentional,
recent Clang versions will object nonetheless, and break the build due
to the presence of such GUIDs in the FPDT ACPI tables.
This is obviously not something we can fix in the code, so let's just
suppress the warning/error instead.

Recent GCC for ARM will complain when selecting the hard float ABI
without specifying the FPU implementation, even when just running the
preprocessor.
This all happens under the hood, and we never bothered in the past,
given that we don't emit floating point code anyway. However, to placate
newer compilers, make it explicit that the floating point ABI is always the
softfloat one, by moving the -msoft-float compiler option to
PLATFORM_FLAGS.

ARCHCC_FLAGS and ARCHASM_FLAGS no longer serve a useful purpose so drop
all the definitions and references.

The global GCC_PP_FLAGS tools_def variable now contains a reference to
OpenSBI specific C preprocessor variables, which means they are added to
the command line on every architecture, not just RISC-V.
This does not currently result in any issues, but it is a bit sloppy so
let's clean this up. Given that the GCC_PP_FLAGS definition appears
twice, drop the one that carries the OpenSBI reference, and move that
reference to a new RISC-V specific variable.

The ebp/rbp register can either be used for the frame pointer or
as general purpose register. With gcc (and clang) this depends
on the -f(no-)omit-frame-pointer switch.
This patch updates tools_def.template to explicitly set the compiler
option and also add a define to allow conditionally compile code.
The new define is used to fix stack switching in TemporaryRamMigration.
The ebp/rbp must not be touched when the compiler can use it as general
purpose register. With version 12 gcc starts actually using the
register, so changing it leads to firmware crashes in some
configurations.

LLVM/CLANG8 formal release http://releases.llvm.org/download.html#8.0.0
It can be downloaded and installed in Windows/Linux/Mac OS.
CLANG8ELF tool chain is added to generate ELF image, and convert to PE/COFF.
On Windows OS, set CLANG_HOST_BIN=n, set CLANG8_BIN=LLVM installed directory
For example:
set CLANG_HOST_BIN=n # use windows nmake
set CLANG8_BIN=C:\Program Files\LLVM\bin\
On Linux/Mac, set CLANG8_BIN=LLVM installed directory
This tool chain can be used to compile the firmware code. On windows OS,
Visual Studio is still required to compile BaseTools C tools and nmake.exe.
On Linux/Mac OS, gcc is used to compile BaseTools C tools. make is used
for makefile.
This tool chain is verified on OVMF Ia32, X64 and Ia32X64 to boot Shell.
This tool chain is verified in Windows/Linux and Mac OS.

GCC48_ALL_CC_FLAGS has no dependency on GCC_ALL_CC_FLAGS.
By definition, there should be such dependency.
The outcomes of this patch is that GCC48_ALL_CC_FLAGS and
other dependent configurations will inherit from the
additional "-Os" flag.
The "-Os" flag optimizes a build in size, not breaking any
build. In a gcc command line, the last optimization flag
has precedence. This means that this "-Os" flag will be
overriden by a more specific optimization configuration,
provided that this more specific flag is appended at the
end of the CC_FLAGS.

By default, gcc allows void* pointer arithmetic.
This is a GCC extension.
However:
- the C reference manual states that void*
pointer "cannot be operands of addition
or subtraction operators". Cf s5.3.1
"Generic Pointers";
- Visual studio compiler treat such operation as
an error.
To prevent such pointer arithmetic, the "-Wpointer-arith"
flag should be set for all GCC versions.
The "-Wpointer-arith" allows to:
"Warn about anything that depends on the "size of"
a function type or of void. GNU C assigns these
types a size of 1, for convenience in calculations
with void * pointers and pointers to functions."
This flag is available since GCC2.95.3 which came out in 2001.

This patch reduces the size of IA32 binaries by ensuring that
no .debug_frame / .eh_frame sections are generated through forcing
SEH exception model, which is already the default in clang for X64.
EDK II does not support exceptions, and in future we should disable
them instead of switching to some other variant. Currently this
is not possible due to the following LLVM bugs:

Compiler cache can greatly improve the build performance and
guarantee the build result safe. In our testing, the compiler
cache can improve the overall clean build time usually by 30+%
in linux and 10+% in windows. The compiler cache are very fit
to improve the Continuous Integration (CI) build performance.
For linux compiler cache (ccache) enabling, there is no need
to update edk2 code.
Below link has the ccache enabling referencd steps:
https://github.com/shijunjing/edk2/wiki/
Edk2-compiler-cache-enabling-steps-on-Linux
For windows compiler cache (clcache) enabling, we need update
the .PDB debugging file producing option from /Zi to /Z7,
which is to let the C object file contain its full symbolic
debugging information rather than produces a separated PDB file
for all obj files per folder. "PDB files are generated by a different
process (mspdbsrv). They arrive or are updated on disk after
cl completes a compilation or linking operation. One huge problem
with caching them is that the pdb files are input files as well as
outputs. mspdbsrv updates the file with new debug information if
the file exists beforehand. If there are several compilations going
on at once targetting the same pdb then the order the pdb gets
updated is unpredictable. All this makes caching very hard."
The /Zi issue more detail disccusion can be found:
https://github.com/frerich/clcache/issues/30
Please be aware that this change has no any impact to edk2 module
level PDB file generation, and we still can get the PDB debug file
for a .efi module. The /Z7 only impact intermediate obj files level
PDB file, which is current one PDB file (vc140.pdb) per obj folder.
