Shi, Steven 17b082ce67 BaseTools: Cannot store library cache of different arch together
https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1895

Build cache cannot store cache for the same library modules
in different arch together. E.g. Both the below IA32 and X64
arch BaseLib caches should exist after build Ovmf3264, but now
only the one in X64 arch exist.
The reason is the current Basetool use a set() to same all
library AutoGen objects, but the different arch lib AutoGen
objects have same __hash_ value which comes from the lib
MetaFile(The path of module file):
    def __hash__(self):
        return hash(self.MetaFile)

So the different arch lib AutoGen objects are duplicated one
to the set() and only one can exist. This is why the Basetool
can only store one arch cache for library.

This patch adds the arch string into the PlatformAutoGen and
ModuleAutoGen __hash_ definitions and ensure the different
platform and module AutoGen objects have different __hash_ values.

This directory contains the next generation of EDK II build tools and template files.
Templates are located in the Conf directory, while the tools executables for
Microsoft Windows 32-bit Operating Systems are located in the Bin\Win32 directory, other
directory contains tools source.

1. Build step to generate the binary tools.

=== Windows/Visual Studio Notes ===

To build the BaseTools, you should run the standard vsvars32.bat script
from your preferred Visual Studio installation or you can run get_vsvars.bat
to use latest automatically detected version.

In addition to this, you should set the following environment variables:

 * EDK_TOOLS_PATH - Path to the BaseTools sub directory under the edk2 tree
 * BASE_TOOLS_PATH - The directory where the BaseTools source is located.
   (It is the same directory where this README.txt is located.)

After this, you can run the toolsetup.bat file, which is in the same
directory as this file.  It should setup the remainder of the environment,
and build the tools if necessary.

Please also refer to the 'BuildNotes.txt' file for more information on
building under Windows.

=== Unix-like operating systems ===

To build on Unix-like operating systems, you only need to type 'make' in
the base directory of the project.

=== Ubuntu Notes ===

On Ubuntu, the following command should install all the necessary build
packages to build all the C BaseTools:

  sudo apt-get install build-essential uuid-dev

=== Python sqlite3 module ===
On Windows, the cx_freeze will not copy the sqlite3.dll to the frozen
binary directory (the same directory as build.exe and GenFds.exe).
Please copy it manually from <PythonHome>\DLLs.

The Python distributed with most recent Linux will have sqlite3 module
built in. If not, please install sqlit3 package separately.
