This patch removes the assumption in the current PSCI implementation that MPIDR
based affinity levels map directly to levels in a power domain tree. This
enables PSCI generic code to support complex power domain topologies as
envisaged by PSCIv1.0 specification. The platform interface for querying
the power domain topology has been changed such that:

1. The generic PSCI code does not generate MPIDRs and use them to query the
   platform about the number of power domains at a particular power level. The
   platform now provides a description of the power domain tree on the SoC
   through a data structure. The existing platform APIs to provide the same
   information have been removed.

2. The linear indices returned by plat_core_pos_by_mpidr() and
   plat_my_core_pos() are used to retrieve core power domain nodes from the
   power domain tree. Power domains above the core level are accessed using a
   'parent' field in the tree node descriptors.

The platform describes the power domain tree in an array of 'unsigned
char's. The first entry in the array specifies the number of power domains at
the highest power level implemented in the system. Each susbsequent entry
corresponds to a power domain and contains the number of power domains that are
its direct children. This array is exported to the generic PSCI implementation
via the new `plat_get_power_domain_tree_desc()` platform API.

The PSCI generic code uses this array to populate its internal power domain tree
using the Breadth First Search like algorithm. The tree is split into two
arrays:

1. An array that contains all the core power domain nodes

2. An array that contains all the other power domain nodes

A separate array for core nodes allows certain core specific optimisations to
be implemented e.g. remove the bakery lock, re-use per-cpu data framework for
storing some information.

Entries in the core power domain array are allocated such that the
array index of the domain is equal to the linear index returned by
plat_core_pos_by_mpidr() and plat_my_core_pos() for the MPIDR
corresponding to that domain. This relationship is key to be able to use
an MPIDR to find the corresponding core power domain node, traverse to higher
power domain nodes and index into arrays that contain core specific
information.

An introductory document has been added to briefly describe the new interface.
