Antonio Nino Diaz 044bb2faab Remove build option `ASM_ASSERTION`
The build option `ENABLE_ASSERTIONS` should be used instead. That way
both C and ASM assertions can be enabled or disabled together.

All occurrences of `ASM_ASSERTION` in common code and ARM platforms have
been replaced by `ENABLE_ASSERTIONS`.

ASM_ASSERTION has been removed from the user guide.

Antonio Nino Diaz cc8b56322b Add `ENABLE_ASSERTIONS` build option
Add the new build option `ENABLE_ASSERTIONS` that controls whether or
not assert functions are compiled out. It defaults to 1 for debug builds
and to 0 for release builds.

Additionally, a following patch will be done to allow this build option
to hide auxiliary code used for the checks done in an `assert()`. This
code is is currently under the DEBUG build flag.

Assert messages are now only printed if LOG_LEVEL >= LOG_LEVEL_INFO,
which is the default for debug builds.

This patch also updates the User Guide.

Antonio Nino Diaz 1e09ff9344 Remove dead loops in assert() in C and ASM
The desired behaviour is to call `plat_panic_handler()`, and to use
`no_ret` to do so from ASM.

Antonio Nino Diaz 801cf93c48 Add and use plat_crash_console_flush() API
This API makes sure that all the characters sent to the crash console
are output before returning from it.

Porting guide updated.

Jeenu Viswambharan a806dad58c Define and use no_ret macro where no return is expected
There are many instances in ARM Trusted Firmware where control is
transferred to functions from which return isn't expected. Such jumps
are made using 'bl' instruction to provide the callee with the location
from which it was jumped to. Additionally, debuggers infer the caller by
examining where 'lr' register points to. If a 'bl' of the nature
described above falls at the end of an assembly function, 'lr' will be
left pointing to a location outside of the function range. This misleads
the debugger back trace.

This patch defines a 'no_ret' macro to be used when jumping to functions
from which return isn't expected. The macro ensures to use 'bl'
instruction for the jump, and also, for debug builds, places a 'nop'
instruction immediately thereafter (unless instructed otherwise) so as
to leave 'lr' pointing within the function range.

Antonio Nino Diaz 1c3ea103d2 Remove all non-configurable dead loops
Added a new platform porting function plat_panic_handler, to allow
platforms to handle unexpected error situations. It must be
implemented in assembly as it may be called before the C environment
is initialized. A default implementation is provided, which simply
spins.

Corrected all dead loops in generic code to call this function
instead. This includes the dead loop that occurs at the end of the
call to panic().

All unnecesary wfis from bl32/tsp/aarch64/tsp_exceptions.S have
been removed.

Kévin Petit 8b779620d3 Add support to indicate size and end of assembly functions
In order for the symbol table in the ELF file to contain the size of
functions written in assembly, it is necessary to report it to the
assembler using the .size directive.

To fulfil the above requirements, this patch introduces an 'endfunc'
macro which contains the .endfunc and .size directives. It also adds
a .func directive to the 'func' assembler macro.

The .func/.endfunc have been used so the assembler can fail if
endfunc is omitted.

Fixes ARM-Software/tf-issues#295

Soby Mathew aecc084080 Rework use of labels in assembly macros.
This patch provides a workaround for the ASM_ASSERT label issue
and also reworks the use of labels in assembly macros.
If the caller of the ASM_ASSERT macro happened to use the
label '1' to jump past the ASM_ASSERT macro, it would not have
worked since the ASM_ASSERT macro internally used the same label.
Hence, as a workaround, this patch makes the label a high
number in the expectation that the caller will never use it.

Also updated the other assembly macros using numerical labels to
named lables.

Soby Mathew 626ed510f1 Rework the crash reporting in BL3-1 to use less stack
This patch reworks the crash reporting mechanism to further
optimise the stack and code size. The reporting makes use
of assembly console functions to avoid calling C Runtime
to report the CPU state. The crash buffer requirement is
reduced to 64 bytes with this implementation. The crash
buffer is now part of per-cpu data which makes retrieving
the crash buffer trivial.

Also now panic() will use crash reporting if
invoked from BL3-1.

Fixes ARM-software/tf-issues#199
