This patch adds support for booting EL3 payloads on CSS platforms,
for example Juno. In this scenario, the Trusted Firmware follows
its normal boot flow up to the point where it would normally pass
control to the BL31 image. At this point, it jumps to the EL3
payload entry point address instead.
Before handing over to the EL3 payload, the data SCP writes for AP
at the beginning of the Trusted SRAM is restored, i.e. we zero the
first 128 bytes and restore the SCP Boot configuration. The latter
is saved before transferring the BL30 image to SCP and is restored
just after the transfer (in BL2). The goal is to make it appear that
the EL3 payload is the first piece of software to run on the target.
The BL31 entrypoint info structure is updated to make the primary
CPU jump to the EL3 payload instead of the BL31 image.
The mailbox is populated with the EL3 payload entrypoint address,
which releases the secondary CPUs out of their holding pen (if the
SCP has powered them on). The arm_program_trusted_mailbox() function
has been exported for this purpose.
The TZC-400 configuration in BL2 is simplified: it grants secure
access only to the whole DRAM. Other security initialization is
unchanged.
This alternative boot flow is disabled by default. A new build option
EL3_PAYLOAD_BASE has been introduced to enable it and provide the EL3
payload's entry point address. The build system has been modified
such that BL31 and BL33 are not compiled and/or not put in the FIP in
this case, as those images are not used in this boot flow.

This patch replaces the `ARM_TZC_BASE` constant with `PLAT_ARM_TZC_BASE` to
support different TrustZone Controller base addresses across ARM platforms.

This major change pulls out the common functionality from the
FVP and Juno platform ports into the following categories:
* (include/)plat/common. Common platform porting functionality that
typically may be used by all platforms.
* (include/)plat/arm/common. Common platform porting functionality
that may be used by all ARM standard platforms. This includes all
ARM development platforms like FVP and Juno but may also include
non-ARM-owned platforms.
* (include/)plat/arm/board/common. Common platform porting
functionality for ARM development platforms at the board
(off SoC) level.
* (include/)plat/arm/css/common. Common platform porting
functionality at the ARM Compute SubSystem (CSS) level. Juno
is an example of a CSS-based platform.
* (include/)plat/arm/soc/common. Common platform porting
functionality at the ARM SoC level, which is not already defined
at the ARM CSS level.
No guarantees are made about the backward compatibility of
functionality provided in (include/)plat/arm.
Also remove any unnecessary variation between the ARM development
platform ports, including:
* Unify the way BL2 passes `bl31_params_t` to BL3-1. Use the
Juno implementation, which copies the information from BL2 memory
instead of expecting it to persist in shared memory.
* Unify the TZC configuration. There is no need to add a region
for SCP in Juno; it's enough to simply not allow any access to
this reserved region. Also set region 0 to provide no access by
default instead of assuming this is the case.
* Unify the number of memory map regions required for ARM
development platforms, although the actual ranges mapped for each
platform may be different. For the FVP port, this reduces the
mapped peripheral address space.
These latter changes will only be observed when the platform ports
are migrated to use the new common platform code in subsequent
patches.
