build: clarify linker script generation
The following build system variables have been renamed:
- `LINKERFILE` -> `DEFAULT_LINKER_SCRIPT`
- `BL_LINKERFILE` -> `DEFAULT_LINKER_SCRIPT_SOURCE`
- `<IMAGE>_LINKERFILE` -> `<IMAGE>_DEFAULT_LINKER_SCRIPT_SOURCE`
These new names better reflect how each variable is used:
1. the default linker script is passed via `-dT` instead of `-T`
2. linker script source files are first preprocessed
Additionally, linker scripts are now placed in the build directory
relative to where they exist in the source directory. For example,
the `bl32/sp_min/sp_min.ld.S` would now preprocess to
`sp_min/sp_min.ld` instead of just `bl32.ld`
BREAKING-CHANGE: The `LINKERFILE`, `BL_LINKERFILE` and
`<IMAGE_LINKERFILE>` build system variables have been renamed. See the
commit message for more information.

linker_script: move .data section to bl_common.ld.h
Move the data section to the common header.
I slightly tweaked some scripts as follows:
[1] bl1.ld.S has ALIGN(16). I added DATA_ALIGN macro, which is 1
by default, but overridden by bl1.ld.S. Currently, ALIGN(16)
of the .data section is redundant because commit 412865907699
("Fix boot failures on some builds linked with ld.lld.") padded
out the previous section to work around the issue of LLD version
<= 10.0. This will be fixed in the future release of LLVM, so
I am keeping the proper way to align LMA.
[2] bl1.ld.S and bl2_el3.ld.S define __DATA_RAM_{START,END}__ instead
of __DATA_{START,END}__. I put them out of the .data section.
[3] SORT_BY_ALIGNMENT() is missing tsp.ld.S, sp_min.ld.S, and
mediatek/mt6795/bl31.ld.S. This commit adds SORT_BY_ALIGNMENT()
for all images, so the symbol order in those three will change,
but I do not think it is a big deal.

linker_script: move bss section to bl_common.ld.h
Move the bss section to the common header. This adds BAKERY_LOCK_NORMAL
and PMF_TIMESTAMP, which previously existed only in BL31. This is not
a big deal because unused data should not be compiled in the first
place. I believe this should be controlled by BL*_SOURCES in Makefiles,
not by linker scripts.
I investigated BL1, BL2, BL2U, BL31 for plat=fvp, and BL2-AT-EL3,
BL31, BL31 for plat=uniphier. I did not see any more unexpected
code addition.
The bss section has bigger alignment. I added BSS_ALIGN for this.
Currently, SORT_BY_ALIGNMENT() is missing in sp_min.ld.S, and with this
change, the BSS symbols in SP_MIN will be sorted by the alignment.
This is not a big deal (or, even better in terms of the image size).
