Currently, the dispatcher reads from SCR_EL3 register directly to
determine the EL of SDEI client. This is with the assumption that
SCR_EL3 is not modified throughout. However, with RAS work flows, it's
possible that SCR_EL3 register contains values corresponding to Secure
world, and therefore EL determination can go wrong. To mitigate this,
always read the register from the saved Non-secure context.

The current macros only allow to define dynamic and statically-bound
SDEI events. However, there ought be a mechanism to define SDEI events
that are explicitly dispatched; i.e., events that are dispatched as a
result of a previous secure interrupt or other exception

This patch introduces SDEI_EXPLICIT_EVENT() macro to define an explicit
event. They must be placed under private mappings. Only the priority
flags are allowed to be additionally specified.

Documentation updated.

The implementation currently supports only interrupt-based SDEI events,
and supports all interfaces as defined by SDEI specification version
1.0 [1].

Introduce the build option SDEI_SUPPORT to include SDEI dispatcher in
BL31.

Update user guide and porting guide. SDEI documentation to follow.
