Update code base to remove variables from the .data section,
mainly by using const static data where possible and adding
the const specifier as required. Most changes are to the IO
subsystem, including the framework APIs. The FVP power
management code is also affected.
Delay initialization of the global static variable,
next_image_type in bl31_main.c, until it is realy needed.
Doing this moves the variable from the .data to the .bss
section.
Also review the IO interface for inconsistencies, using
uintptr_t where possible instead of void *. Remove the
io_handle and io_dev_handle typedefs, which were
unnecessary, replacing instances with uintptr_t.
FixesARM-software/tf-issues#107.

Reduce the number of header files included from other header
files as much as possible without splitting the files. Use forward
declarations where possible. This allows removal of some unnecessary
"#ifndef __ASSEMBLY__" statements.
Also, review the .c and .S files for which header files really need
including and reorder the #include statements alphabetically.

Add tag names to all unnamed structs in header files. This
allows forward declaration of structs, which is necessary to
reduce header file nesting (to be implemented in a subsequent
commit).
Also change the typedef names across the codebase to use the _t
suffix to be more conformant with the Linux coding style. The
coding style actually prefers us not to use typedefs at all but
this is considered a step too far for Trusted Firmware.
Also change the IO framework structs defintions to use typedef'd
structs to be consistent with the rest of the codebase.

Make codebase consistent in its use of #include "" syntax for
user includes and #include <> syntax for system includes.

At present many recoverable failures are reported as errors. This patch
modifies all such failures to be reported as warnings instead.

The Firmware Image Package (FIP) driver allows for data to be loaded
from a FIP on platform storage. The FVP supports loading bootloader
images from a FIP located in NOR FLASH.
The implemented FVP policy states that bootloader images will be
loaded from a FIP in NOR FLASH if available and fall back to loading
individual images from semi-hosting.
NOTE:
- BL3-3(e.g. UEFI) is loaded into DRAM and needs to be configured
to run from the BL33_BASE address. This is currently set to
DRAM_BASE+128MB for the FVP.
