Chen, Christine 9cd854e19d BaseTools/Brotli: Fix compressed data loss issue
REF: https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2946

Currenly, when using the Brotli tool to compress data, the output
compressed binary file does not record complete compressed data
when size of input file is too large, which makes the data loss and
will trigger decompress-check issue.

The Brotli document mentioned:
The brotli tool use BrotliEncoderCompressStream method to compresses
input stream to output stream. Under some circumstances (e.g. lack of
output stream capacity) the BrotliEncoderOperation would require
several calls to BrotliEncoderCompressStream. The method must be
called again until both input stream is depleted and encoder has no
more output after the method is called.

This patch fixes this issue based on the Brotli document.

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

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.rst 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 install build-essential uuid-dev
