[New-bugs-announce] [issue46427] Correct MSBuild's configuration for _freeze_module.exe

[neonene]

New submission from neonene <nicesalmon at gmail.com>:

In pcbuild.proj, "PreferredToolArchitecture" property looks misused, which I think is useful giving us two selections of a compiler (32bit or 64bit) for any target architecture (Win32/x64/ARM/ARM64).

I think the property can be unused there. This means a partial revert of PR28491, whose description I cannot reproduce. This also rolls _freeze_module.exe's architecture back to x64 when the target platform is x64 or ARM64.
