feat(per-cpu): integrate per-cpu framework into BL31/BL32

Integrate per-cpu support into BL31/BL32 by extending the following
areas:

Zero-initialization: Treats per-cpu sections like .bss and clears them
during early C runtime initialization. For platforms that enable
NUMA_AWARE_PER_CPU, invokes a platform hook to zero-initialize
node-specific per-cpu regions.

Cache maintenance: Extends the BL31 exit path to clean dcache lines
covering the per-cpu region, ensuring data written by the primary core
is visible to secondary cores.

tpidr_el3 setup: Initializes tpidr_el3 with the base address of the
current CPU’s per-cpu section. This allows per-cpu framework to
resolve local cpu accesses efficiently.

The percpu_data object is currently stored in tpidr_el3. Since the
per-cpu framework will use tpidr_el3 for this-cpu access, percpu_data
must be migrated to avoid conflict. This commit moves percpu_data to
the per-cpu framework.

refactor: unify blx_setup() and blx_main()

All BLs have a bl_setup() for things that need to happen early, a fall
back into assembly and then bl_main() for the main functionality. This
was necessary in order to fiddle with PAuth related things that tend to
break C calls. Since then PAuth's enablement has seen a lot of
refactoring and this is now worked around cleanly so the distinction can
be removed. The only tradeoff is that this requires pauth to not be used
for the top-level main function.

There are two main benefits to doing this: First, code is easier to
understand as it's all together and the entrypoint is smaller. Second,
the compiler gets to see more of the code and apply optimisations
(importantly LTO).

fix(bl31): avoid clearing of argument registers in RESET_TO_BL31 case

It was assumed that BL31 is the first bootloader to run so there's
no argument to relay from a previous bootloader in RESET_TO_BL31
case, however this is not true for every platform with a non-TF-A
bootloader that might get executed before BL31 while compiling in
RESET_TO_BL31 feature.

Thus, by avoiding zeroing registers, the arguments passed from the
previous bootloader to BL31 are preserved.

in non-adjacent memory regions, potentially far from each other,
some fixes are needed to support it completely.

1. adr instruction only allows computing the effective address
of a location only within 1MB range of the PC. However, adrp
instruction together with an add permits position independent
address of any location with 4GB range of PC.

2. Since BL31 _RW_END_ marks the end of BL31 image, care must be
taken that it is aligned to page size since we map this memory
region in BL31 using xlat_v2 lib utils which mandate alignment of
image size to page granularity.

PIE: make call to GDT relocation fixup generalized

When a Firmware is complied as Position Independent Executable it needs
to request GDT fixup by passing size of the memory region to
el3_entrypoint_common macro.
The Global descriptor table fixup will be done early on during cold boot
process of primary core.

Currently only BL31 supports PIE, but in future when BL2_AT_EL3 will be
compiled as PIE, it can simply pass fixup size to the common el3
entrypoint macro to fixup GDT.

The reason for this patch was to overcome the bug introduced by SHA
330ead806 which called fixup routine for each core causing
re-initializing of global pointers thus overwriting any changes
done by the previous core.

Refactor ARMv8.3 Pointer Authentication support code

This patch provides the following features and makes modifications
listed below:
- Individual APIAKey key generation for each CPU.
- New key generation on every BL31 warm boot and TSP CPU On event.
- Per-CPU storage of APIAKey added in percpu_data[]
of cpu_data structure.
- `plat_init_apiakey()` function replaced with `plat_init_apkey()`
which returns 128-bit value and uses Generic timer physical counter
value to increase the randomness of the generated key.
The new function can be used for generation of all ARMv8.3-PAuth keys
- ARMv8.3-PAuth specific code placed in `lib\extensions\pauth`.
- New `pauth_init_enable_el1()` and `pauth_init_enable_el3()` functions
generate, program and enable APIAKey_EL1 for EL1 and EL3 respectively;
pauth_disable_el1()` and `pauth_disable_el3()` functions disable
PAuth for EL1 and EL3 respectively;
`pauth_load_bl31_apiakey()` loads saved per-CPU APIAKey_EL1 from
cpu-data structure.
- Combined `save_gp_pauth_registers()` function replaces calls to
`save_gp_registers()` and `pauth_context_save()`;
`restore_gp_pauth_registers()` replaces `pauth_context_restore()`
and `restore_gp_registers()` calls.
- `restore_gp_registers_eret()` function removed with corresponding
code placed in `el3_exit()`.
- Fixed the issue when `pauth_t pauth_ctx` structure allocated space
for 12 uint64_t PAuth registers instead of 10 by removal of macro
CTX_PACGAKEY_END from `include/lib/el3_runtime/aarch64/context.h`
and assigning its value to CTX_PAUTH_REGS_END.
- Use of MODE_SP_ELX and MODE_SP_EL0 macro definitions
in `msr spsel` instruction instead of hard-coded values.
- Changes in documentation related to ARMv8.3-PAuth and ARMv8.5-BTI.
