bl1/aarch64/early_exceptions.S used to be re-used by BL2, BL3-1 and
BL3-2. There was some early SMC handling code in there that was not
required by the other bootloader stages. Therefore this patch
introduces an even simpler exception vector source file for BL2,
BL3-1 and BL3-2.

The Test Secure-EL1 Payload implementation should always have a
platform-specific component. Therefore, there should always
be a platform-specific sub-makefile for the TSP. If there is
none then assume TSP is not supported on this specific platform
and throw an error at build time if the user tries to compile it.

At present, the entry point for each BL image is specified via the
Makefiles and provided on the command line to the linker. When using a
link script the entry point should rather be specified via the ENTRY()
directive in the link script.
This patch updates linker scripts of all BL images to specify the entry
point using the ENTRY() directive. It also removes the --entry flag
passed to the linker through Makefile.

This change requires all platforms to now specify a list of source files
rather than object files.
New source files should preferably be specified by using the path as
well and we should add this in the future for all files so we can remove
use of vpath. This is desirable because vpath hides issues like the fact
that BL2 currently pulls in a BL1 file bl1/aarch64/early_exceptions.S
and if in the future we added bl2/aarch64/early_exceptions.S then it's
likely only one of the two version would be used for both bootloaders.
This change also removes the 'dump' build target and simply gets
bootloaders to always generate a dump file. At the same time the -x
option is added so the section headers and symbols table are listed.

This patch adds the TSPD service which is responsible for managing
communication between the non-secure state and the Test Secure Payload
(TSP) executing in S-EL1.
The TSPD does the following:
1. Determines the location of the TSP (BL3-2) image and passes control
to it for initialization. This is done by exporting the 'bl32_init()'
function.
2. Receives a structure containing the various entry points into the TSP
image as a response to being initialized. The TSPD uses this
information to determine how the TSP should be entered depending on
the type of operation.
3. Implements a synchronous mechanism for entering into and returning
from the TSP image. This mechanism saves the current C runtime
context on top of the current stack and jumps to the TSP through an
ERET instruction. The TSP issues an SMC to indicate completion of the
previous request. The TSPD restores the saved C runtime context and
resumes TSP execution.
This patch also introduces a Make variable 'SPD' to choose the specific
SPD to include in the build. By default, no SPDs are included in the
build.

This patch adds a simple TSP as the BL3-2 image. The secure payload
executes in S-EL1. It paves the way for the addition of the TSP
dispatcher runtime service to BL3-1. The TSP and the dispatcher service
will serve as an example of the runtime firmware's ability to toggle
execution between the non-secure and secure states in response to SMC
request from the non-secure state. The TSP will be replaced by a
Trusted OS in a real system.
The TSP also exports a set of handlers which should be called in
response to a PSCI power management event e.g a cpu being suspended or
turned off. For now it runs out of Secure DRAM on the ARM FVP port and
will be moved to Secure SRAM later. The default translation table setup
code assumes that the caller is executing out of secure SRAM. Hence the
TSP exports its own translation table setup function.
The TSP only services Fast SMCs, is non-reentrant and non-interruptible.
It does arithmetic operations on two sets of four operands, one set
supplied by the non-secure client, and the other supplied by the TSP
dispatcher in EL3. It returns the result according to the Secure Monitor
Calling convention standard.
This TSP has two functional entry points:
- An initial, one-time entry point through which the TSP is initialized
and prepares for receiving further requests from secure
monitor/dispatcher
- A fast SMC service entry point through which the TSP dispatcher
requests secure services on behalf of the non-secure client
