Sometimes when changing UART clock from TBG to XTAL, UART HW enters into
some broken state. It does not transit characters from TX FIFO anymore
and TX FIFO stays always empty. TX FIFO reset does not recover UART HW
from this broken state.
Experiments show that external reset can fix UART HW from this broken
state.
TF-A fatal error handler calls console_a3700_core_init() function to
initialize UART HW. This handler may be called anytime during CPU
runtime, also when kernel is running.
U-Boot or Linux kernel may change UART clock to TBG to achieve higher
baudrates. During initialization, console_a3700_core_init() resets UART
configuration to default settings, which means that it also changes
UART clock from TBG to XTAL.
Do an external reset of UART via North Bridge Peripheral reset register
to prevent this UART hangup.

This patch does not change code, it only updates comments and macro name
for 6th bit of Status Register. So TF-A binary stay same.
6th bit of the Status Register is named TX EMPTY and is set to 1 when both
Transmitter Holding Register (THR) or Transmitter Shift Register (TSR) are
empty. It is when all characters were already transmitted.
There is also TX FIFO EMPTY bit in the Status Register which is set to 1
only when THR is empty.
In both console_a3700_core_init() and console_a3700_core_flush() functions
we should wait until both THR and TSR are empty therefore we should check
6th bit of the Status Register.
So current code is correct, just had misleading macro names and comments.
This change fixes this "documentation" issue, fixes macro name for 6th bit
of the Status Register and also updates comments.

Implementation is simple, just check if there is a pending character in
RX FIFO via RXRDY bit of Status Register and if yes, read it from
UART_RX_REG register.

Since now the generic console_t structure holds the UART base address as
well, let's use that generic location and drop the UART driver specific
data structure at all.

NOTE: __ASSEMBLY__ macro is now deprecated in favor of __ASSEMBLER__.
All common C compilers predefine a macro called __ASSEMBLER__ when
preprocessing a .S file. There is no reason for TF-A to define it's own
__ASSEMBLY__ macro for this purpose instead. To unify code with the
export headers (which use __ASSEMBLER__ to avoid one extra dependency),
let's deprecate __ASSEMBLY__ and switch the code base over to the
predefined standard.

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.
