Detect SCP version incompatibility

There has been a breaking change in the communication protocols used
between the AP cores and the SCP on CSS based platforms like Juno.
This means both the AP Trusted Firmware and SCP firmware must be
updated at the same time.

In case the user forgets to update the SCP ROM firmware, this patch
detects when it still uses the previous version of the communication
protocol. It will then output a comprehensive error message that helps
trouble-shoot the issue.

For a better understanding of these options, the ARM development platform memory
map is explained in the [Firmware Design].
#### ARM CSS platform specific build options
* `CSS_DETECT_PRE_1_7_0_SCP`: Boolean flag to detect SCP version
incompatibility. Version 1.7.0 of the SCP firmware made a non-backwards
compatible change to the MTL protocol, used for AP/SCP communication.
Trusted Firmware no longer supports earlier SCP versions. If this option is
set to 1 then Trusted Firmware will detect if an earlier version is in use.
Default is 1.
