A populate() function essentially captures the value of a property,
defined by a platform, into a fconf related c structure. Such a
callback is usually platform specific and is associated to a specific
configuration source.
For example, a populate() function which captures the hardware topology
of the platform can only parse HW_CONFIG DTB. Hence each populator
function must be registered with a specific 'config_type' identifier.
It broadly represents a logical grouping of configuration properties
which is usually a device tree source file.
Example:
> TB_FW: properties related to trusted firmware such as IO policies,
base address of other DTBs, mbedtls heap info etc.
> HW_CONFIG: properties related to hardware configuration of the SoC
such as topology, GIC controller, PSCI hooks, CPU ID etc.
This patch modifies FCONF_REGISTER_POPULATOR macro and fconf_populate()
to register and invoke the appropriate callbacks selectively based on
configuration type.

This patch introduces a better separation between the trusted-boot
related properties, and the dynamic configuration DTBs loading
information.
The dynamic configuration DTBs properties are moved to a new node:
`dtb-registry`. All the sub-nodes present will be provided to the
dynamic config framework to be loaded. The node currently only contains
the already defined configuration DTBs, but can be extended for future
features if necessary.
The dynamic config framework is modified to use the abstraction provided
by the fconf framework, instead of directly accessing the DTBs.
The trusted-boot properties are kept under the "arm,tb_fw" compatible
string, but in a separate `tb_fw-config` node.
The `tb_fw-config` property of the `dtb-registry` node simply points
to the load address of `fw_config`, as the `tb_fw-config` is currently
part of the same DTB.
