How are you envisioning the packaging to work? I think that installing
all the edk2 BaseTools executables in /usr/bin would be silly.

I have two ideas:
1. /usr/bin/edk2-build would be a script that would add
/usr/lib/edk2-buildtools/bin to the PATH and run
/usr/lib/edk2-buildtools/bin/build
2. Same as 1, except use 'edk2' for the command name, and 'build' as
the first parameter. (Ie, use sub-commands like svn/git)

I also think it might be convenient if the templates in
/usr/lib/edk2-buildtools/Conf were used for Conf files if
$WORKSPACE/Conf is empty.
