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).

linker_script: replace common read-only data with RODATA_COMMON
The common section data are repeated in many linker scripts (often twice in each script to support SEPARATE_CODE_AND_RODATA). When you add a new read-only data section, you end up with touching lots of places.
After this commit, you will only need to touch bl_common.ld.h when you add a new section to RODATA_COMMON.
Replace a series of RO section with RODATA_COMMON, which contains 6 sections, some of which did not exist before.
This is not a big deal because unneeded data should not be compiled in the first place. I believe this should be controlled by BL*_SOURCES in Makefiles, not by linker scripts.
When I was working on this commit, the BL1 image size increased due to the fconf_populator. Commit c452ba159c14 ("fconf: exclude fconf_dyn_cfg_getter.c from BL1_SOURCES") fixed this issue.
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.
