This patch provides a workaround for the ASM_ASSERT label issue
and also reworks the use of labels in assembly macros.
If the caller of the ASM_ASSERT macro happened to use the
label '1' to jump past the ASM_ASSERT macro, it would not have
worked since the ASM_ASSERT macro internally used the same label.
Hence, as a workaround, this patch makes the label a high
number in the expectation that the caller will never use it.

Also updated the other assembly macros using numerical labels to
named lables.

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.

The patch implements a macro ASM_ASSERT() which can
be invoked from assembly code. When assertion happens,
file name and line number of the check is written
to the crash console.

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.

bl1/aarch64/early_exceptions.S used to be re-used by BL2, BL3-1 and
BL3-2.  There was some early SMC handling code in there that was not
required by the other bootloader stages.  Therefore this patch
introduces an even simpler exception vector source file for BL2,
BL3-1 and BL3-2.
