Alexei Fedorov ed108b5605 Refactor ARMv8.3 Pointer Authentication support code
This patch provides the following features and makes modifications
listed below:
- Individual APIAKey key generation for each CPU.
- New key generation on every BL31 warm boot and TSP CPU On event.
- Per-CPU storage of APIAKey added in percpu_data[]
  of cpu_data structure.
- `plat_init_apiakey()` function replaced with `plat_init_apkey()`
  which returns 128-bit value and uses Generic timer physical counter
  value to increase the randomness of the generated key.
  The new function can be used for generation of all ARMv8.3-PAuth keys
- ARMv8.3-PAuth specific code placed in `lib\extensions\pauth`.
- New `pauth_init_enable_el1()` and `pauth_init_enable_el3()` functions
  generate, program and enable APIAKey_EL1 for EL1 and EL3 respectively;
  pauth_disable_el1()` and `pauth_disable_el3()` functions disable
  PAuth for EL1 and EL3 respectively;
  `pauth_load_bl31_apiakey()` loads saved per-CPU APIAKey_EL1 from
  cpu-data structure.
- Combined `save_gp_pauth_registers()` function replaces calls to
  `save_gp_registers()` and `pauth_context_save()`;
  `restore_gp_pauth_registers()` replaces `pauth_context_restore()`
  and `restore_gp_registers()` calls.
- `restore_gp_registers_eret()` function removed with corresponding
  code placed in `el3_exit()`.
- Fixed the issue when `pauth_t pauth_ctx` structure allocated space
  for 12 uint64_t PAuth registers instead of 10 by removal of macro
  CTX_PACGAKEY_END from `include/lib/el3_runtime/aarch64/context.h`
  and assigning its value to CTX_PAUTH_REGS_END.
- Use of MODE_SP_ELX and MODE_SP_EL0 macro definitions
  in `msr	spsel`  instruction instead of hard-coded values.
- Changes in documentation related to ARMv8.3-PAuth and ARMv8.5-BTI.
