Subject: [PATCH v2] BaseTools: Support COMPAT16 section generation

Currently COMPAT16 section type is not recognized and GenSec is called without the "-s [SectionType]" argument.
Add COMPAT16 type to the SectionType dictionary to fix the issue.

Now this syntax works correctly:
```
FILE FREEFORM = <GUID>  {
  SECTION COMPAT16 = <FILE>
}
```
