When TF-A is compiled with BTI enabled, the branches in the ROMLIB
jumptable must be preceded by a "bti j" instruction.
Moreover, when the additional "bti" instruction is inserted, the
jumptable entries have a distance of 8 bytes between them instead of 4.
Hence, the wrappers are also modified accordinly.
If TF-A is compiled without BTI enabled, the ROMLIB jumptable and
wrappers are generated as before.

Fixed the below bugs:
1) Bug related to build flag V=1: if the flag was V=0, building with
ROMLIB would fail.
2) Due to a syntax bug in genwrappers.sh, index file entries marked as
"patch" or "reserved" were ignored.
3) Added a prepending hash to constants that genwrappers is generating.
4) Due to broken dependencies, currently the inclusion functionality is
intentionally not utilised. This is why the contents of romlib/jmptbl.i
have been copied to platform specific jmptbl.i files. As a result of the
broken dependencies, when changing the index files, e.g. patching
functions, a clean build is always required. This is a known issue that
will be fixed in the future.

This patch allows platforms to define their
own jump table list for library at ROM. The
file has the list of functions to be used
from library at ROM. It can also include
other list files.

This change allows patching of functions in the
romlib. This can be done by adding "patch" at the
end of the jump table entry for the function that
needs to be patched in the file jmptbl.i.
Functions patched in the jump table list will be
built as part of the BL image and the romlib
version will not be used

Romlib is a new image that is stored in ROM and contains the code of
several libraries that can be shared between different images. All
the functions within in the library are accessed using a jump table
which allows to update the romlib image whithout changing the binary
compatibility. This jump table can be also stored in RAM and it can
allow to patch a romlib with potential bugs fixes..
