BaseTools/GCC: set -Wno-unused-but-set-variables only on RELEASE builds
This aligns the GCC definitions for 4.6 and up to align with the ARM and AARCH64 definitions, which is to ignore unused but set variables only on RELEASE builds. This allows us to find instances of unused variables that are left behind after refactoring. It also allows us to find bad new code, which, due to the EDK2 coding style which disallows initialized automatic variables, may contain such variables without having been noticed by other toolchains. (Slightly edited) observation from Jordan Justen <jordan.l.justen@intel.com>: RELEASE builds must keep the flag because debug code (such as assertions) may collapse to nothing -- e.g. if a platform defines MDEPKG_NDEBUG for RELEASE -- and therefore trigger the warning.
