A new platform define, `PLAT_SP_IMAGE_XLAT_SECTION_NAME`, has been
introduced to select the section where the translation tables used by
the S-EL1/S-EL0 are placed.
This define has been used to move the translation tables to DRAM secured
by TrustZone.
Most of the extra needed space in BL31 when SPM is enabled is due to the
large size of the translation tables. By moving them to this memory
region we can save 44 KiB.
A new argument has been added to REGISTER_XLAT_CONTEXT2() to specify the
region where the translation tables have to be placed by the linker.

This patch introduces a new API in the translation tables library
(v2), that allows to change the memory attributes of a memory
region. It may be used to change its execution permissions and
data access permissions.
As a prerequisite, the memory must be already mapped. Moreover, it
must be mapped at the finest granularity (currently 4 KB).

This patch introduces the ability of the xlat tables library to manage
EL0 and EL1 mappings from a higher exception level.
Attributes MT_USER and MT_PRIVILEGED have been added to allow the user
specify the target EL in the translation regime EL1&0.
REGISTER_XLAT_CONTEXT2 macro is introduced to allow creating a
xlat_ctx_t that targets a given translation regime (EL1&0 or EL3).
A new member is added to xlat_ctx_t to represent the translation regime
the xlat_ctx_t manages. The execute_never mask member is removed as it
is computed from existing information.

Introduce a variant of the TLB invalidation helper function that
allows the targeted translation regime to be specified, rather than
defaulting to the current one.
This new function is useful in the context of EL3 software managing
translation tables for the S-EL1&0 translation regime, as then it
might need to invalidate S-EL1&0 TLB entries rather than EL3 ones.
Define a new enumeration to be able to represent translation regimes in
the xlat tables library.

The current implementation of the memory mapping API favours mapping
memory regions using the biggest possible block size in order to
reduce the number of translation tables needed.
In some cases, this behaviour might not be desirable. When translation
tables are edited at run-time, coarse-grain mappings like that might
need splitting into finer-grain tables. This operation has a
performance cost.
The MAP_REGION2() macro allows to specify the granularity of
translation tables used for the initial mapping of a memory region.
This might increase performance for memory regions that are likely to
be edited in the future, at the expense of a potentially increased
memory footprint.
The Translation Tables Library Design Guide has been updated to
explain the use case for this macro. Also added a few intermediate
titles to make the guide easier to digest.

Use the MAP_REGION to build the mmap_region_t argument in wrappers like
mmap_add_region(). Evolution of the mmap_region_t might require adding
new members with a non-zero default value. Users of MAP_REGION are
protected against such evolution. This commit also protects users of
mmap_add_region() and mmap_add_dynamic_region() functions against these
evolutions.
Also make the MAP_REGION macro implementation more explicit and make it
a mmap_region_t compound literal to make it useable as a function
parameter on its own and to prevent using it in initialization of
variables of different type.

In a previous patch, the xlat_ctx_t type has been made public.
This patch now makes the *_ctx() APIs public.
Each API now has a *_ctx() variant. Most of them were already implemented
and this patch just makes them public. However, some of them were missing
so this patch introduces them.
Now that all these APIs are public, there's no good reason for splitting
them accross 2 files (xlat_tables_internal.c and xlat_tables_common.c).
Therefore, this patch moves all code into xlat_tables_internal.c and
removes xlat_tables_common.c. It removes it from the library's makefile
as well.
This last change introduces a compatibility break for platform ports
that specifically include the xlat_tables_common.c file instead of
including the library's Makefile. The UniPhier platform makefile has
been updated to now omit this file from the list of source files.
The prototype of mmap_add_region_ctx() has been slightly changed. The
mmap_region_t passed in argument needs to be constant because it gets
called from map_add(), which receives a constant region. The former
implementation of mmap_add() used to cast the const qualifier away,
which is not a good practice.
Also remove init_xlation_table(), which was a sub-function of
init_xlat_tables(). Now there's just init_xlat_tables() (and
init_xlat_tables_ctx()). Both names were too similar, which was
confusing. Besides, now that all the code is in a single file,
it's no longer needed to have 2 functions for that.

At the moment, the translation context type (xlat_ctx_t) is a private
type reserved for the internal usage of the translation table library.
All exported APIs (implemented in xlat_tables_common.c) are wrappers
over the internal implementations that use such a translation context.
These wrappers unconditionally pass the current translation context
representing the memory mappings of the executing BL image. This means
that the caller has no control over which translation context the
library functions act on.
As a first step to make this code more flexible, this patch exports
the 'xlat_ctx_t' type. Note that, although the declaration of this type
is now public, its definition stays private. A macro is introduced to
statically allocate and initialize such a translation context.
The library now internally uses this macro to allocate the default
translation context for the running BL image.

This patch modifies both versions of the translation table library
to use the mmap_attr_t type consistently wherever it is manipulating
MT_* attributes variables. It used to use mmap_attr_t or plain integer
types interchangeably, which compiles fine because an enumeration type
can be silently converted to an integer, but which is semantically
incorrect.
This patch removes this assumption by using the abstract type
'mmap_attr_t' all the time.

Added APIs to add and remove regions to the translation tables
dynamically while the MMU is enabled. Only static regions are allowed
to overlap other static ones (for backwards compatibility).
A new private attribute (MT_DYNAMIC / MT_STATIC) has been added to
flag each region as such.
The dynamic mapping functionality can be enabled or disabled when
compiling by setting the build option PLAT_XLAT_TABLES_DYNAMIC to 1
or 0. This can be done per-image.
TLB maintenance code during dynamic table mapping and unmapping has
also been added.

The folder lib/xlat_tables_v2 has been created to store a new version
of the translation tables library for further modifications in patches
to follow. At the moment it only contains a basic implementation that
supports static regions.
This library allows different translation tables to be modified by
using different 'contexts'. For now, the implementation defaults to
the translation tables used by the current image, but it is possible
to modify other tables than the ones in use.
Added a new API to print debug information for the current state of
the translation tables, rather than printing the information while
the tables are being created. This allows subsequent debug printing
of the xlat tables after they have been changed, which will be useful
when dynamic regions are implemented in a patch to follow.
The common definitions stored in `xlat_tables.h` header have been moved
to a new file common to both versions, `xlat_tables_defs.h`.
All headers related to the translation tables library have been moved to
a the subfolder `xlat_tables`.
