I noticed ReadMe.txt was a little outdated. I updated it to match
current functionality (e.g. BaseTools works on both 32-bit and 64-bit
Windows). Since the formatting was neither RST or MD, I converted it to
RST and renamed to ReadMe.rst to match the edk2 ReadMe.rst.

Some (most?) sqlite use was removed in commit 
2f818ed0fb57d98985d151781a2ce9b8683129ee in 2018, but there are still 
some modules (Ecc/Database.py, Eoc/Database.py and
UPT/Core/IpiDb,py) that do require it, so I'm not sure if the part
about sqlite3 should still be present in the ReadMe file. If so, I think
the text about cx_freeze might be obsolete.

Is this change not wanted at the moment? I've not seen any comments on 
the patch yet.

The ReadMe file is now RST, so update the filename extension to match.
