The Secure Partition Manager (SPM) prototype implementation is
being removed. This is preparatory work for putting in place a
dispatcher component that, in turn, enables partition managers
at S-EL2 / S-EL1.

This patch removes:

- The core service files (std_svc/spm)
- The Resource Descriptor headers (include/services)
- SPRT protocol support and service definitions
- SPCI protocol support and service definitions

There are two different implementations of Secure Partition
management in TF-A. One is based on the "Management Mode" (MM)
design, the other is based on the Secure Partition Client Interface
(SPCI) specification. Currently there is a dependency between their
build flags that shouldn't exist, making further development
harder than it should be. This patch removes that
dependency, making the two flags function independently.

Before: ENABLE_SPM=1 is required for using either implementation.
        By default, the SPCI-based implementation is enabled and
        this is overridden if SPM_MM=1.

After: ENABLE_SPM=1 enables the SPCI-based implementation.
       SPM_MM=1 enables the MM-based implementation.
       The two build flags are mutually exclusive.

Note that the name of the ENABLE_SPM flag remains a bit
ambiguous - this will be improved in a subsequent patch. For this
patch the intention was to leave the name as-is so that it is
easier to track the changes that were made.

This patch enables LTO for TF-A when compiled with GCC.
LTO is disabled by default and is enabled by
ENABLE_LTO=1 build option.

LTO is enabled only for aarch64 as there seem to be
a bug in the aarch32 compiler when LTO is enabled.

The changes in the makefiles include:
- Adding -flto and associated flags to enable LTO.
- Using gcc as a wrapper at link time instead of ld.
  This is recommended when using LTO as gcc internally
  takes care of invoking the necessary plugins for LTO.
- Adding switches to pass options to ld.
- Adding a flag to disable fix for erratum cortex-a53-843419
  unless explicitly enabled. This is needed because GCC
  seem to automatically add the erratum fix when used
  as a wrapper for LD.

Additionally, this patch updates the TF-A user guide with
the new build option.

The User Guide document has grown organically over time and
now covers a wide range of topics, making it difficult to
skim read and extract information from. Currently, it covers
these topics and maybe a couple more:

- Requirements (hardware, tools, libs)
- Checking out the repo
- Basic build instructions
- A comprehensive list of build flags
- FIP packaging
- Building specifically for Juno
- Firmware update images
- EL3 payloads
- Preloaded BL33 boot flow
- Running on FVPs
- Running on Juno

I have separated these out into a few groups that become new
documents. Broadly speaking, build instructions for the tools,
for TF-A generally, and for specific scenarios are separated.
Content relating to specific platforms (Juno and the FVPs are
Arm-specific platforms, essentially) has been moved into the
documentation that is specific to those platforms, under
docs/plat/arm.
