BaseTools/tools_def.template: bump minimum required NASM versions
NASM had been unable to assemble segment register operations before the
following git commit:
http://repo.or.cz/nasm.git/commitdiff/21d4ccc3c338
That commit was first released in NASM 2.10:
http://repo.or.cz/nasm.git/commitdiff/ff62f33da0a2
This makes NASM 2.07 unusable for edk2 in general, because now we have a
lot of X64 assembly code that works with segment registers. For example
in:
UefiCpuPkg/Library/CpuExceptionHandlerLib/X64/ExceptionHandlerAsm.nasm
Bump the minimum required version to 2.10, for use with GCC toolchains.
Furthermore, list NASM 2.12.01 as a requirement for all other toolchains.
In particular, for source level debugging, VS20xx requires CodeView 8
debug symbols, and only NASM 2.12.01 and later produce those. (Suggested
by Liming, Mike, and Andrew.)
