This patch adds code to parse memory range information passed by
coreboot, and a simple helper to test whether a specific address belongs
to a range. This may be useful for coreboot-using platforms that need to
know information about the system's memory layout (e.g. to check whether
an address passed in via SMC targets valid DRAM).

Since now the generic console_t structure holds the UART base address as
well, let's use that generic location for the coreboot memory console.
This removes the base member from the coreboot specific data structure,
but keeps the struct console_cbmc_t and its size member.

Enforce full include path for includes. Deprecate old paths.
The following folders inside include/lib have been left unchanged:
- include/lib/cpus/${ARCH}
- include/lib/el3_runtime/${ARCH}
The reason for this change is that having a global namespace for
includes isn't a good idea. It defeats one of the advantages of having
folders and it introduces problems that are sometimes subtle (because
you may not know the header you are actually including if there are two
of them).
For example, this patch had to be created because two headers were
called the same way: e0ea0928d5 ("Fix gpio includes of mt8173 platform
to avoid collision."). More recently, this patch has had similar
problems: 46f9b2c3a2 ("drivers: add tzc380 support").
This problem was introduced in commit 4ecca33988 ("Move include and
source files to logical locations"). At that time, there weren't too
many headers so it wasn't a real issue. However, time has shown that
this creates problems.
Platforms that want to preserve the way they include headers may add the
removed paths to PLAT_INCLUDES, but this is discouraged.

coreboot supports an in-memory console to store firmware logs even when
no serial console is available. It is widely supported by
coreboot-compatible bootloaders (including SeaBIOS and GRUB) and can be
read by the Linux kernel.
This patch allows BL31 to add its own log messages to this console. The
driver will be registered automatically if coreboot support is compiled
in and detects the presence of a console buffer in the coreboot tables.

This patch adds the foundation for a platform-independent coreboot
support library that can be shared by all platforms that boot BL31 from
coreboot (acting as BL2). It adds code to parse the "coreboot table", a
data structure that coreboot uses to communicate different kinds of
information to later-stage firmware and certain OS drivers.
As a first small use case for this information, allow platforms to
access the serial console configuration used by coreboot, removing the
need to hardcode base address and divisors and allowing Trusted Firmware
to benefit from coreboot's user configuration (e.g. which UART to pick
and which baud rate to use).
