Zelalem Aweke 5b18de09e8 feat(rme): add ENABLE_RME build option and support for RMM image
The changes include:

- A new build option (ENABLE_RME) to enable FEAT_RME

- New image called RMM. RMM is R-EL2 firmware that manages Realms.
  When building TF-A, a path to RMM image can be specified using
  the "RMM" build flag. If RMM image is not provided, TRP is built
  by default and used as RMM image.

- Support for RMM image in fiptool

Zelalem Aweke 50a3056a3c feat(rme): add Test Realm Payload (TRP)
TRP is a small test payload that implements Realm Monitor
Management (RMM) functionalities. RMM runs in the Realm world
(R-EL2) and manages the execution of Realm VMs and their
interaction with the hypervisor in Normal world.

TRP is used to test the interface between RMM and Normal world
software, known as Realm Management Interface (RMI). Current
functions includes returning RMM version and transitioning
granules from Non-secure to Realm world and vice versa.

More information about RMM can be found at:
