The behaviour of assert() now depends on the value of the new optional
platform define `PLAT_LOG_LEVEL_ASSERT`. This defaults to `LOG_LEVEL` if
not defined by the platform.
- If `PLAT_LOG_LEVEL_ASSERT` >= `LOG_LEVEL_VERBOSE`, it prints the file
name, line and asserted expression.
- If `PLAT_LOG_LEVEL_ASSERT` >= `LOG_LEVEL_INFO`, it prints the file
name and line.
- If not, it doesn't print anything.
Note the old behaviour was to print the function name whereas now it
prints the file name. This reduces memory usage because the file name is
shared between all assert calls in a given file. Also, the default
behaviour in debug builds is to no longer print the asserted expression,
greatly reducing the string usage.
For FVP debug builds this change saves approximately:

Add the new build option `ENABLE_ASSERTIONS` that controls whether or
not assert functions are compiled out. It defaults to 1 for debug builds
and to 0 for release builds.
Additionally, a following patch will be done to allow this build option
to hide auxiliary code used for the checks done in an `assert()`. This
code is is currently under the DEBUG build flag.
Assert messages are now only printed if LOG_LEVEL >= LOG_LEVEL_INFO,
which is the default for debug builds.
This patch also updates the User Guide.
