Replace some "recursively expanded" make variables with "simply

Make:Use environment variables for OS detection.

Add make helper files to select the appropriate settings for the build
environment. Selection is made in make_helpers/build_env.mk, which
selects other files to include using generic build environment settings.
The Trusted Firmware Makefile and supporting tool Makefiles are updated
to include build_env.mk instead of unix.mk.

NOTE: This change does not fully enable builds in other build
environments. It facilitates this without compromising the
existing build environments.

Make:Make shell commands more portable

Macros are inserted to replace direct invocations of commands that are
problematic on some build environments. (e.g. Some environments expect
\ in paths instead of /.)
The changes take into account mismatched command mappings across
environments.
The new helper file unix.mk retains existing makefile behaviour on unix
like build environments by providing the following macro definitions:
SHELL_COPY cp -f
SHELL_COPY_TREE cp -rf
SHELL_DELETE rm -f
SHELL_DELETE_ALL rm -rf
MAKE_PREREQ_DIR mkdir -p (As make target)
SHELL_REMOVE_DIR rm -rf

Make:Remove calls to shell from makefiles.

As an initial stage of making Trusted Firmware build environment more
portable, we remove most uses of the $(shell ) function and replace them
with more portable make function based solutions.

Note that the setting of BUILD_STRING still uses $(shell ) since it's
not possible to reimplement this as a make function. Avoiding invocation
of this on incompatible host platforms will be implemented separately.

The flag used to enable this bootflow is BL33_BASE, which must hold

Compile stdlib C files individually

All C files of stdlib were included into std.c, which was the file
that the Makefile actually compiled. This is a poor way of compiling
all the files and, while it may work fine most times, it's
discouraged.

In this particular case, each C file included its own headers, which
were later included into std.c. For example, this caused problems
because a duplicated typedef of u_short in both subr_prf.c and
types.h. While that may require an issue on its own, this kind of
problems are avoided if all C files are as independent as possible.

Disable non-temporal hint on Cortex-A53/57

The LDNP/STNP instructions as implemented on Cortex-A53 and
Cortex-A57 do not behave in a way most programmers expect, and will
most probably result in a significant speed degradation to any code
that employs them. The ARMv8-A architecture (see Document ARM DDI
0487A.h, section D3.4.3) allows cores to ignore the non-temporal hint
and treat LDNP/STNP as LDP/STP instead.

This patch introduces 2 new build flags:
A53_DISABLE_NON_TEMPORAL_HINT and A57_DISABLE_NON_TEMPORAL_HINT
to enforce this behaviour on Cortex-A53 and Cortex-A57. They are
enabled by default.

The string printed in debug builds when a specific CPU errata
workaround is compiled in but skipped at runtime has been
generalised, so that it can be reused for the non-temporal hint use
case as well.

Apply TBBR naming convention to the fip_create options

The fip_create tool specifies images in the command line using the
ARM TF naming convention (--bl2, --bl31, etc), while the cert_create
tool uses the TBBR convention (--tb-fw, --soc-fw, etc). This double
convention is confusing and should be aligned.

This patch updates the fip_create command line options to follow the
TBBR naming convention. Usage examples in the User Guide have been
also updated.

NOTE: users that build the FIP by calling the fip_create tool directly
from the command line must update the command line options in their
scripts. Users that build the FIP by invoking the main ARM TF Makefile
should not notice any difference.

De-feature PL011 UART driver to match generic UART spec

The Server Base System Architecture document (ARM-DEN-0029)
specifies a generic UART device. The programmer's view of this
generic UART is a subset of the ARM PL011 UART. However, the
current PL011 driver in Trusted Firmware uses some features
that are outside the generic UART specification.

This patch modifies the PL011 driver to exclude features outside
the SBSA generic UART specification by setting the boolean build
option 'PL011_GENERIC_UART=1'. Default value is 0 (use full
PL011 features).

User guide updated.

FWU: Add support for `fwu_fip` target

Firmware update feature needs a new FIP called `fwu_fip.bin` that
includes Secure(SCP_BL2U, BL2U) and Normal world(NS_BL2U) images
along with the FWU_CERT certificate in order for NS_BL1U to load
the images and help the Firmware update process to complete.

This patch adds the capability to support the new target `fwu_fip`
which includes above mentioned FWU images in the make files.

The new target of `fwu_fip` and its dependencies are included for
compilation only when `TRUSTED_BOARD_BOOT` is defined.

NOTE: A platform makefile must supply additional `BL2U_SOURCES`
to build the bl2u target. A subsequent patch adds bl2u
support for ARM platforms.

FWU: Add Generic Firmware Update framework support in BL1

Firmware update(a.k.a FWU) feature is part of the TBB architecture.
BL1 is responsible for carrying out the FWU process if platform
specific code detects that it is needed.

This patch adds support for FWU feature support in BL1 which is
included by enabling `TRUSTED_BOARD_BOOT` compile time flag.

This patch adds bl1_fwu.c which contains all the core operations
of FWU, which are; SMC handler, image copy, authentication, execution
and resumption. It also adds bl1.h introducing #defines for all
BL1 SMCs.

Following platform porting functions are introduced:

int bl1_plat_mem_check(uintptr_t mem_base, unsigned int mem_size,
unsigned int flags);
This function can be used to add platform specific memory checks
for the provided base/size for the given security state.
The weak definition will invoke `assert()` and return -ENOMEM.

__dead2 void bl1_plat_fwu_done(void *cookie, void *reserved);
This function can be used to initiate platform specific procedure
to mark completion of the FWU process.
The weak definition waits forever calling `wfi()`.

plat_bl1_common.c contains weak definitions for above functions.

FWU process starts when platform detects it and return the image_id
other than BL2_IMAGE_ID by using `bl1_plat_get_next_image_id()` in
`bl1_main()`.

NOTE: User MUST provide platform specific real definition for
bl1_plat_mem_check() in order to use it for Firmware update.
