Add domain off support for Linux kernel's cpu
hot-plug feature, when there are cpu off request
from Linux kernel, TF-A will send command to
system controller to do CPU power gate accordingly,
tested on i.MX8QM MEK board.

Add domain suspend/resume support, Linux kernel
can "echo mem > /sys/power/state" to put system
into suspend mode, all CPUs and cluster will be
powered off and can be waked up if irq pending
in GIC, tested on i.MX8QX MEK board.

Add system reset support for i.MX8QX,
when Linux kernel issues "reboot" command,
TF-A will send command to inform system
controller to reset whole board according
to board design, tested on i.MX8QX MEK board.

NXP's i.MX8QM is an ARMv8 SoC with 2 clusters, 2 Cortex-A72
cores in one cluster and 4 Cortex-A53 in the other cluster,
and also has system controller (Cortex-M4) inside, documentation

NXP's i.MX8 SoCs have system controller (M4 core)
which takes control of clock management, power management,
partition management, PAD management etc., other
clusters like Cortex-A35 can send out command via MU
(Message Unit) to system controller for clock/power
management etc..

This patch adds basic IPC(inter-processor communication) support.
