At the moment, the translation context type (xlat_ctx_t) is a private
type reserved for the internal usage of the translation table library.
All exported APIs (implemented in xlat_tables_common.c) are wrappers
over the internal implementations that use such a translation context.

These wrappers unconditionally pass the current translation context
representing the memory mappings of the executing BL image. This means
that the caller has no control over which translation context the
library functions act on.

As a first step to make this code more flexible, this patch exports
the 'xlat_ctx_t' type. Note that, although the declaration of this type
is now public, its definition stays private. A macro is introduced to
statically allocate and initialize such a translation context.

The library now internally uses this macro to allocate the default
translation context for the running BL image.

Move the header files that provide translation tables architectural
definitions from the library v2 source files to the library include
directory. This allows to share these definitions between both
versions (v1 and v2) of the library.

Create a new header file that includes the AArch32 or AArch64
definitions based on the AARCH32 build flag, so that the library user
doesn't have to worry about handling it on their side.

Also repurpose some of the definitions the header files provide to
concentrate on the things that differ between AArch32 and AArch64.
As a result they now contain the following information:
 - the first table level that allows block descriptors;
 - the architectural limits of the virtual address space;
 - the initial lookup level to cover the entire address space.

Additionally, move the XLAT_TABLE_LEVEL_MIN macro from
xlat_tables_defs.h to the AArch32/AArch64 architectural definitions.

This new organisation eliminates duplicated information in the AArch32
and AArch64 versions. It also decouples these architectural files from
any platform-specific information. Previously, they were dependent on
the address space size, which is platform-specific.

Finally, for the v2 of the library, move the compatibility code for
ADDR_SPACE_SIZE into a C file as it is not needed outside of this
file. For v1, this code hasn't been changed and stays in a header
file because it's needed by several files.

- Fix some comments.
- Remove duplicated definition.
- Make xlat_arch_get_max_supported_pa() private in aarch64.

Translation regimes that only support one virtual address space (such as
the ones for EL2 and EL3) can flag memory regions as execute-never by
setting to 1 the XN bit in the Upper Attributes field in the translation
tables descriptors. Translation regimes that support two different
virtual address spaces (such as the one shared by EL1 and EL0) use bits
PXN and UXN instead.

The Trusted Firmware runs at EL3 and EL1, it has to handle translation
tables of both translation regimes, but the previous code handled both
regimes the same way, as if both had only 1 VA range.

When trying to set a descriptor as execute-never it would set the XN
bit correctly in EL3, but it would set the XN bit in EL1 as well. XN is
at the same bit position as UXN, which means that EL0 was being
prevented from executing code at this region, not EL1 as the code
intended. Therefore, the PXN bit was unset to 0 all the time. The result
is that, in AArch64 mode, read-only data sections of BL2 weren't
protected from being executed.

This patch adds support of translation regimes with two virtual address
spaces to both versions of the translation tables library, fixing the
execute-never permissions for translation tables in EL1.

The library currently does not support initializing translation tables
for EL0 software, therefore it does not set/unset the UXN bit. If EL1
software needs to initialize translation tables for EL0 software, it
should use a different library instead.

This patch modifies both versions of the translation table library
to use the mmap_attr_t type consistently wherever it is manipulating
MT_* attributes variables. It used to use mmap_attr_t or plain integer
types interchangeably, which compiles fine because an enumeration type
can be silently converted to an integer, but which is semantically
incorrect.

This patch removes this assumption by using the abstract type
'mmap_attr_t' all the time.

Added APIs to add and remove regions to the translation tables
dynamically while the MMU is enabled. Only static regions are allowed
to overlap other static ones (for backwards compatibility).

A new private attribute (MT_DYNAMIC / MT_STATIC) has been added to
flag each region as such.

The dynamic mapping functionality can be enabled or disabled when
compiling by setting the build option PLAT_XLAT_TABLES_DYNAMIC to 1
or 0. This can be done per-image.

TLB maintenance code during dynamic table mapping and unmapping has
also been added.

Fixes ARM-software/tf-issues#310

The folder lib/xlat_tables_v2 has been created to store a new version
of the translation tables library for further modifications in patches
to follow. At the moment it only contains a basic implementation that
supports static regions.

This library allows different translation tables to be modified by
using different 'contexts'. For now, the implementation defaults to
the translation tables used by the current image, but it is possible
to modify other tables than the ones in use.

Added a new API to print debug information for the current state of
the translation tables, rather than printing the information while
the tables are being created. This allows subsequent debug printing
of the xlat tables after they have been changed, which will be useful
when dynamic regions are implemented in a patch to follow.

The common definitions stored in `xlat_tables.h` header have been moved
to a new file common to both versions, `xlat_tables_defs.h`.

All headers related to the translation tables library have been moved to
a the subfolder `xlat_tables`.
