Routine Description:

  This function parses the tools_def.txt file.  It returns a
  EFI_HANDLE object which can be used for the other library
  functions and should be passed to FreeParsedToolsDefHandle
  to free resources when the tools_def.txt information is no
  longer needed.

Arguments:

  InputFile     Path name of file to read

Returns:

  NULL if error parsing
  A non-NULL EFI_HANDLE otherwise
