This change creates the following directories under docs/
in order to provide a grouping for the content:

- components
- design
- getting_started
- perf
- process

In each of these directories an index.rst file is created
and this serves as an index / landing page for each of the
groups when the pages are compiled. Proper layout of the
top-level table of contents relies on this directory/index
structure.

Without this patch it is possible to build the documents
correctly with Sphinx but the output looks messy because
there is no overall hierarchy.

Corrects typos in core code, documentation files, drivers, Arm
platforms and services.

None of the corrections affect code; changes are limited to comments
and other documentation.

Add a dependency for building EL3 exception handling framework(EHF)
module with the secure partition manager(SPM).

The EHF module is needed for raising the core's running priority
before the core enters the secure partition, and lowering it
subsequently on exit from the secure partition.

BL31 is running out of space, and the use-case of SPM doesn't require it
to be in SRAM. To prevent BL31 from running out of space in the future,
move BL31 to DRAM if SPM is enabled.

Secure Partition Manager design document updated to reflect the changes.

Increased the size of the stack of BL31 for builds with SPM.

The translation tables used by SPM in Arm platforms have been moved back
to the 'xlat_tables' region instead of 'arm_el3_tzc_dram'. Everything is
in DRAM now, so it doesn't make sense to treat them in a different way.

Update Arm Trusted Firmware references in the upstream documents to
Trusted Firmware-A (TF-A). This is for consistency with and
disambiguation from Trusted Firmware-M (TF-M).

Also update other Arm trademarks, e.g. ARM->Arm, ARMv8->Armv8-A.

This patch adds documentation that describes the design of the Secure
Partition Manager and the specific choices in their current
implementation.

The document "SPM User Guide" has been integrated into the design
document.
