Platforms implemented against the DSC spec would have never worked if
they relied on behavior that BaseTools currently does not implement.

Platforms built against the current behavior that used to work might
break after this change. MdeModulePkg.dsc for ARM/AARCH64 no longer
builds due to this change.

Also, as I pointed out, the DSC spec is far from ambiguous. This means
that platforms implemented against the spec will rely on one of
several possible interpretations of that ambiguous set of rules.

So let's revert this change now. Let's fix the DSC spec next, And only
then, let's fix the code (assuming it still needs to be fixed)
