    Add IO abstraction framework · f2f9bb5e
    James Morrissey authored
    This is intended primarily for use as a storage abstraction.
    It allows operations such as image-loading to be implemented
    in a platform-independent fashion.  Each platform registers
    a set of IO drivers during initialisation.  The platform must
    also provide a function that will return a device and a specifier
    that can be used to access specified content.
    
    Clients of the API will primarily use device and entity handles.
    The term "entity" is deliberately vague, to allow for different
    representations of content accessed using different types of
    specifier, but will often be interpreted as a "file" where the
    specifier will normally be its path.
    
    This commit builds, but is intended to be paired with a sample
    implementation of "load_image" using a semi-hosting driver on FVP.
