The workarounds for these errata are so closely related that it is
better to only have one patch to make it easier to understand.

The previous commit added the infrastructure to load and save
ARMv8.3-PAuth registers during Non-secure <-> Secure world switches, but
didn't actually enable pointer authentication in the firmware.
This patch adds the functionality needed for platforms to provide
authentication keys for the firmware, and a new option (ENABLE_PAUTH) to
enable pointer authentication in the firmware itself. This option is
disabled by default, and it requires CTX_INCLUDE_PAUTH_REGS to be
enabled.

ARMv8.3-PAuth adds functionality that supports address authentication of
the contents of a register before that register is used as the target of
an indirect branch, or as a load.
This feature is supported only in AArch64 state.
This feature is mandatory in ARMv8.3 implementations.
This feature adds several registers to EL1. A new option called
CTX_INCLUDE_PAUTH_REGS has been added to select if the TF needs to save
them during Non-secure <-> Secure world switches. This option must be
enabled if the hardware has the registers or the values will be leaked
during world switches.
To prevent leaks, this patch also disables pointer authentication in the
Secure world if CTX_INCLUDE_PAUTH_REGS is 0. Any attempt to use it will
be trapped in EL3.

This reverts commit 2f37046524 ("Add support for the SMC Calling
Convention 2.0").
SMCCC v2.0 is no longer required for SPM, and won't be needed in the
future. Removing it makes the SMC handling code less complicated.
The SPM implementation based on SPCI and SPRT was using it, but it has
been adapted to SMCCC v1.0.
