NOTE: Breaking change to the way UUIDs are stored in the DT
Currently, UUIDs are stored in the device tree as
sequences of 4 integers. There is a mismatch in endianness
between the way UUIDs are represented in memory and the way
they are parsed from the device tree. As a result, we must either
store the UUIDs in little-endian format in the DT (which means
that they do not match up with their string representations)
or perform endianness conversion after parsing them.
Currently, TF-A chooses the second option, with unwieldy
endianness-conversion taking place after reading a UUID.
To fix this problem, and to make it convenient to copy and
paste UUIDs from other tools, change to store UUIDs in string
format, using a new wrapper function to parse them from the
device tree.

The UEFI specification details the represenatation
for the EFI_GUID type. Add this representation to the
uuid_helper_t union type so that GUID definitions
can be shared verbatim between UEFI and TF-A header
files.

Use the firmware configuration framework to store the io_policies
information inside the configuration device tree instead of the static
structure in the code base.
The io_policies required by BL1 can't be inside the dtb, as this one is
loaded by BL1, and only available at BL2.
This change currently only applies to FVP platform.

All identifiers, regardless of use, that start with two underscores are
reserved. This means they can't be used in header guards.
The style that this project is now to use the full name of the file in
capital letters followed by 'H'. For example, for a file called
"uart_example.h", the header guard is UART_EXAMPLE_H.
The exceptions are files that are imported from other projects:
- CryptoCell driver
- dt-bindings folders
- zlib headers

RFC4122 defines that fields are stored in network order (big endian),
but TF-A stores them in machine order (little endian by default in TF-A).
We cannot change the future UUIDs that are already generated, but we can store
all the bytes using arrays and modify fiptool to generate the UUIDs with
the correct byte order.

Some header files need to be shared between TF and host programs.
For fiptool, two headers are copied to the tools/fiptool directory,
but it looks clumsy.
This commit introduces a new directory, include/tools_share, which
collects headers that should be shared between TF and host programs.
This will clarify the interface exposed to host tools. We should
add new headers to this directory only when we really need to do so.
For clarification, I inserted a blank line between headers from the
include/ directory (#include <...>) and ones from a local directory
(#include "..." ).
