Soby Mathew b2bca61da5 AArch32: Add translation table library support
This patch adds translation library supports for AArch32 platforms.
The library only supports long descriptor formats for AArch32.
The `enable_mmu_secure()` enables the MMU for secure world with
`TTBR0` pointing to the populated translation tables.

Sandrine Bailleux b9161469fa xlat lib: Introduce MT_EXECUTE/MT_EXECUTE_NEVER attributes
This patch introduces the MT_EXECUTE/MT_EXECUTE_NEVER memory mapping
attributes in the translation table library to specify the
access permissions for instruction execution of a memory region.
These new attributes should be used only for normal, read-only
memory regions. For other types of memory, the translation table
library still enforces the following rules, regardless of the
MT_EXECUTE/MT_EXECUTE_NEVER attribute:

 - Device memory is always marked as execute-never.
 - Read-write normal memory is always marked as execute-never.

Sandrine Bailleux 72b6008181 xlat lib: Remove out-dated comment
As of commit e1ea9290bb, if the attributes of an inner memory region
are different than the outer region, new page tables are generated
regardless of how "restrictive" they are. This patch removes an
out-dated comment still referring to the old priority system based
on which attributes were more restrictive.

Soby Mathew 3ca9928df2 Refactor the xlat_tables library code
The AArch32 long descriptor format and the AArch64 descriptor format
correspond to each other which allows possible sharing of xlat_tables
library code between AArch64 and AArch32. This patch refactors the
xlat_tables library code to seperate the common functionality from
architecture specific code. Prior to this patch, all of the xlat_tables
library code were in `lib/aarch64/xlat_tables.c` file. The refactored code
is now in `lib/xlat_tables/` directory. The AArch64 specific programming
for xlat_tables is in `lib/xlat_tables/aarch64/xlat_tables.c` and the rest
of the code common to AArch64 and AArch32 is in
`lib/xlat_tables/xlat_tables_common.c`. Also the data types used in
xlat_tables library APIs are reworked to make it compatible between AArch64
and AArch32.

The `lib/aarch64/xlat_tables.c` file now includes the new xlat_tables
library files to retain compatibility for existing platform ports.
The macros related to xlat_tables library are also moved from
`include/lib/aarch64/arch.h` to the header `include/lib/xlat_tables.h`.

NOTE: THE `lib/aarch64/xlat_tables.c` FILE IS DEPRECATED AND PLATFORM PORTS
ARE EXPECTED TO INCLUDE THE NEW XLAT_TABLES LIBRARY FILES IN THEIR MAKEFILES.
