I agree that we want this PCD mentioned in BaseLib header, but most likely it 
should be done in a shorter form.

What about something like this?

  Unless PcdAssertOnSafeStringConstraints is set to FALSE:
  If String is NULL, then ASSERT().
  If Data is NULL, then ASSERT().
  If String is not aligned in a 16-bit boundary, then ASSERT().
  If PcdMaximumUnicodeStringLength is not zero, and String contains more than
  PcdMaximumUnicodeStringLength Unicode characters, not including the
  Null-terminator, then ASSERT().

Best wishes,
Vitaly
