Chris Kay 68120783d6 feat(mpmm): add support for MPMM
MPMM - the Maximum Power Mitigation Mechanism - is an optional
microarchitectural feature present on some Armv9-A cores, introduced
with the Cortex-X2, Cortex-A710 and Cortex-A510 cores.

MPMM allows the SoC firmware to detect and limit high activity events
to assist in SoC processor power domain dynamic power budgeting and
limit the triggering of whole-rail (i.e. clock chopping) responses to
overcurrent conditions.

This feature is enabled via the `ENABLE_MPMM` build option.
Configuration can be done via FCONF by enabling `ENABLE_MPMM_FCONF`, or
by via the plaform-implemented `plat_mpmm_topology` function.

Jimmy Brisson 7dfb99118e Add TRNG Firmware Interface service
This adds the TRNG Firmware Interface Service to the standard
service dispatcher. This includes a method for dispatching entropy
requests to platforms and includes an entropy pool implementation to
avoid dropping any entropy requested from the platform.

J-Alves 662af36d9c SPCI is now called PSA FF-A
SPCI is renamed as PSA FF-A which stands for Platform Security
Architecture Firmware Framework for A class processors.
This patch replaces the occurrence of SPCI with PSA FF-A(in documents)
or simply FFA(in code).

Paul Beesley 8f62ca7b30 doc: Add minimal glossary
One of the current issues with the documentation is that terms and
abbreviations are frequently redefined. For example, we might have
a sentence like "... the SCP (System Control Processor) will ...".

These definitions might be repeated several times across pages, or
even within the same document. Equally, some of these abbreviations
are missed and are never expanded.

Sphinx provides a :term: keyword that takes some text and,
if that text is defined in a glossary document, links to its glossary
entry. Using this functionality will prevent repeated definitions
and will make the docs more maintainable by using a single
definition source.

The glossary added in this patch was created from a quick scrub of
the source code - there may be missing entries. The SDEI abbreviation
was used as an example.

Note that a global_substitutions file was created. This file contains
the RST 'replace' statements that convert plain text terms into linked
terms (by adding the ':term:' keyword to them). An example is:

.. |TF-A| replace:: :term:`TF-A`

The 'rst_prolog' variable in conf.py is used to inject this list of
replacements into each page. Terms must be surrounded with the pipe
character to be turned into links - this means that we can still
prevent certain terms from being linked if we don't want them to be.
