This patch adds a tool that generates all the necessary elements
to establish the chain of trust (CoT) between the images.

The tool reads the binary images and signing keys and outputs the
corresponding certificates that will be used by the target at run
time to verify the authenticity of the images.

Note: the platform port must provide the file platform_oid.h. This
file will define the OIDs of the x509 extensions that will be added
to the certificates in order to establish the CoT.

Create new LOG_LEVEL build option, which controls the amount of
console output compiled into the build. This should be one of the
following:

    0  (LOG_LEVEL_NONE)
    10 (LOG_LEVEL_NOTICE)
    20 (LOG_LEVEL_ERROR)
    30 (LOG_LEVEL_WARNING)
    40 (LOG_LEVEL_INFO)
    50 (LOG_LEVEL_VERBOSE)

All log output up to and including the log level is compiled into the
build. The default value is 40 in debug builds and 20 in release
builds.

Complement the existing INFO, WARN and ERROR console output macros
with NOTICE and VERBOSE macros, which are conditionally compiled in
depending on the value of LOG_LEVEL.

This patch reworks the crash reporting mechanism to further
optimise the stack and code size. The reporting makes use
of assembly console functions to avoid calling C Runtime
to report the CPU state. The crash buffer requirement is
reduced to 64 bytes with this implementation. The crash
buffer is now part of per-cpu data which makes retrieving
the crash buffer trivial.

Also now panic() will use crash reporting if
invoked from BL3-1.

This patch implements a "tf_printf" which supports only the commonly
used format specifiers in Trusted Firmware, which uses a lot less
stack space than the stdlib printf function.

Function declarations implicitly have external linkage so do not
need the extern keyword.

This patch implements the register reporting when unhandled exceptions are
taken in BL3-1. Unhandled exceptions will result in a dump of registers
to the console, before halting execution by that CPU. The Crash Stack,
previously called the Exception Stack, is used for this activity.
This stack is used to preserve the CPU context and runtime stack
contents for debugging and analysis.

This also introduces the per_cpu_ptr_cache, referenced by tpidr_el3,
to provide easy access to some of BL3-1 per-cpu data structures.
Initially, this is used to provide a pointer to the Crash stack.

panic() now prints the the error file and line number in Debug mode
and prints the PC value in release mode.

The Exception Stack is renamed to Crash Stack with this patch.
The original intention of exception stack is no longer valid
since we intend to support several valid exceptions like IRQ
and FIQ in the trusted firmware context. This stack is now
utilized for dumping and reporting the system state when a
crash happens and hence the rename.

Reduce the number of header files included from other header
files as much as possible without splitting the files. Use forward
declarations where possible. This allows removal of some unnecessary
"#ifndef __ASSEMBLY__" statements.

Also, review the .c and .S files for which header files really need
including and reorder the #include statements alphabetically.

Fixes ARM-software/tf-issues#31

Move almost all system include files to a logical sub-directory
under ./include. The only remaining system include directories
not under ./include are specific to the platform. Move the
corresponding source files to match the include directory
structure.

Also remove pm.h as it is no longer used.

This patch introduces the reworked exception handling logic which lays
the foundation for accessing runtime services in later patches. The
type of an exception has a greater say in the way it is
handled. SP_EL3 is used as the stack pointer for:

1. Determining the type of exception and handling the unexpected ones
   on the exception stack

2. Saving and restoring the essential general purpose and system
   register state after exception entry and prior to exception exit.

SP_EL0 is used as the stack pointer for handling runtime service
requests e.g. SMCs. A new structure for preserving general purpose
register state has been added to the 'cpu_context' structure. All
assembler ensures that it does not use callee saved registers
(x19-x29). The C runtime preserves them across functions calls. Hence
EL3 code does not have to save and restore them explicitly.

Since the exception handling framework has undergone substantial change,
the changes have been kept in separate files to aid readability. These
files will replace the existing ones in subsequent patches.

The GICv3 distributor can have more ports than CPUs are available in
the system. Probe all re-distributors and use the matching affinity
levels as specified by each core and re-distributor to decide which
re-distributor to use with which CPU core.

If a core cannot be matched with a re-distributor, the core panics and
is placed in an endless loop.

- Add 'debug.h' with INFO, WARN and ERROR macros.
- This prints the specified message with the appropriate tag.
- INFO and WARN messages are only displayed when building with
  the DEBUG flag set. Error messages are always printed.

Platform setup code has to reserve some memory for storing the
memory layout information.  It is populated in early platform setup
code.

blx_get_sec_mem_layout() functions used to return a copy of this
structure.  This patch modifies blx_get_sec_mem_layout() functions
so that they now directly return a pointer to their memory layout
structure.  It ensures that the memory layout returned by
blx_get_sec_mem_layout() is always up-to-date and also avoids a
useless copy of the meminfo structure.

Also rename blx_get_sec_mem_layout() to blx_plat_sec_mem_layout()
to make it clear those functions are platform specific.
