AArch32: Rework SMC context save and restore mechanism

The current SMC context data structure `smc_ctx_t` and related helpers are
optimized for case when SMC call does not result in world switch. This was
the case for SP_MIN and BL1 cold boot flow. But the firmware update usecase
requires world switch as a result of SMC and the current SMC context helpers
were not helping very much in this regard. Therefore this patch does the
following changes to improve this:

1. Add monitor stack pointer, `spmon` to `smc_ctx_t`

The C Runtime stack pointer in monitor mode, `sp_mon` is added to the
SMC context, and the `smc_ctx_t` pointer is cached in `sp_mon` prior
to exit from Monitor mode. This makes is easier to retrieve the
context when the next SMC call happens. As a result of this change,
the SMC context helpers no longer depend on the stack to save and
restore the register.

This aligns it with the context save and restore mechanism in AArch64.

2. Add SCR in `smc_ctx_t`

Adding the SCR register to `smc_ctx_t` makes it easier to manage this
register state when switching between non secure and secure world as a
result of an SMC call.

Add support for GCC stack protection

Introduce new build option ENABLE_STACK_PROTECTOR. It enables
compilation of all BL images with one of the GCC -fstack-protector-*
options.

A new platform function plat_get_stack_protector_canary() is introduced.
It returns a value that is used to initialize the canary for stack
corruption detection. Returning a random value will prevent an attacker
from predicting the value and greatly increase the effectiveness of the
protection.

A message is printed at the ERROR level when a stack corruption is
detected.

To be effective, the global data must be stored at an address
lower than the base of the stacks. Failure to do so would allow an
attacker to overwrite the canary as part of an attack which would void
the protection.

FVP implementation of plat_get_stack_protector_canary is weak as
there is no real source of entropy on the FVP. It therefore relies on a
timer's value, which could be predictable.

Replace some memset call by zeromem

Replace all use of memset by zeromem when zeroing moderately-sized
structure by applying the following transformation:
memset(x, 0, sizeof(x)) => zeromem(x, sizeof(x))

As the Trusted Firmware is compiled with -ffreestanding, it forbids the
compiler from using __builtin_memset and forces it to generate calls to
the slow memset implementation. Zeromem is a near drop in replacement
for this use case, with a more efficient implementation on both AArch32
and AArch64.

Introduce unified API to zero memory

Introduce zeromem_dczva function on AArch64 that can handle unaligned
addresses and make use of DC ZVA instruction to zero a whole block at a
time. This zeroing takes place directly in the cache to speed it up
without doing external memory access.

Remove the zeromem16 function on AArch64 and replace it with an alias to
zeromem. This zeromem16 function is now deprecated.

Remove the 16-bytes alignment constraint on __BSS_START__ in
firmware-design.md as it is now not mandatory anymore (it used to comply
with zeromem16 requirements).

Change the 16-bytes alignment constraints in SP min's linker script to a
8-bytes alignment constraint as the AArch32 zeromem implementation is now
more efficient on 8-bytes aligned addresses.

Introduce zero_normalmem and zeromem helpers in platform agnostic header
that are implemented this way:
* AArch32:
* zero_normalmem: zero using usual data access
* zeromem: alias for zero_normalmem
* AArch64:
* zero_normalmem: zero normal memory using DC ZVA instruction
(needs MMU enabled)
* zeromem: zero using usual data access

Usage guidelines: in most cases, zero_normalmem should be preferred.

There are 2 scenarios where zeromem (or memset) must be used instead:
* Code that must run with MMU disabled (which means all memory is
considered device memory for data accesses).
* Code that fills device memory with null bytes.

Optionally, the following rule can be applied if performance is
important:
* Code zeroing small areas (few bytes) that are not secrets should use
memset to take advantage of compiler optimizations.

Note: Code zeroing security-related critical information should use
zero_normalmem/zeromem instead of memset to avoid removal by
compilers' optimizations in some cases or misbehaving versions of GCC.

Abort preempted TSP STD SMC after PSCI CPU suspend

Standard SMC requests that are handled in the secure-world by the Secure
Payload can be preempted by interrupts that must be handled in the
normal world. When the TSP is preempted the secure context is stored and
control is passed to the normal world to handle the non-secure
interrupt. Once completed the preempted secure context is restored. When
restoring the preempted context, the dispatcher assumes that the TSP
preempted context is still stored as the SECURE context by the context
management library.

However, PSCI power management operations causes synchronous entry into
TSP. This overwrites the preempted SECURE context in the context
management library. When restoring back the SECURE context, the Secure
Payload crashes because this context is not the preempted context
anymore.

This patch avoids corruption of the preempted SECURE context by aborting
any preempted SMC during PSCI power management calls. The
abort_std_smc_entry hook of the TSP is called when aborting the SMC
request.

It also exposes this feature as a FAST SMC callable from normal world to
abort preempted SMC with FID TSP_FID_ABORT.

Define and use no_ret macro where no return is expected

There are many instances in ARM Trusted Firmware where control is
transferred to functions from which return isn't expected. Such jumps
are made using 'bl' instruction to provide the callee with the location
from which it was jumped to. Additionally, debuggers infer the caller by
examining where 'lr' register points to. If a 'bl' of the nature
described above falls at the end of an assembly function, 'lr' will be
left pointing to a location outside of the function range. This misleads
the debugger back trace.

This patch defines a 'no_ret' macro to be used when jumping to functions
from which return isn't expected. The macro ensures to use 'bl'
instruction for the jump, and also, for debug builds, places a 'nop'
instruction immediately thereafter (unless instructed otherwise) so as
to leave 'lr' pointing within the function range.

Introduce SEPARATE_CODE_AND_RODATA build flag

At the moment, all BL images share a similar memory layout: they start
with their code section, followed by their read-only data section.
The two sections are contiguous in memory. Therefore, the end of the
code section and the beginning of the read-only data one might share
a memory page. This forces both to be mapped with the same memory
attributes. As the code needs to be executable, this means that the
read-only data stored on the same memory page as the code are
executable as well. This could potentially be exploited as part of
a security attack.

This patch introduces a new build flag called
SEPARATE_CODE_AND_RODATA, which isolates the code and read-only data
on separate memory pages. This in turn allows independent control of
the access permissions for the code and read-only data.

This has an impact on memory footprint, as padding bytes need to be
introduced between the code and read-only data to ensure the
segragation of the two. To limit the memory cost, the memory layout
of the read-only section has been changed in this case.

- When SEPARATE_CODE_AND_RODATA=0, the layout is unchanged, i.e.
the read-only section still looks like this (padding omitted):

| ... |
+-------------------+
| Exception vectors |
+-------------------+
| Read-only data |
+-------------------+
| Code |
+-------------------+ BLx_BASE

In this case, the linker script provides the limits of the whole
read-only section.

- When SEPARATE_CODE_AND_RODATA=1, the exception vectors and
read-only data are swapped, such that the code and exception
vectors are contiguous, followed by the read-only data. This
gives the following new layout (padding omitted):

| ... |
+-------------------+
| Read-only data |
+-------------------+
| Exception vectors |
+-------------------+
| Code |
+-------------------+ BLx_BASE

In this case, the linker script now exports 2 sets of addresses
instead: the limits of the code and the limits of the read-only
data. Refer to the Firmware Design guide for more details. This
provides platform code with a finer-grained view of the image
layout and allows it to map these 2 regions with the appropriate
access permissions.

Note that SEPARATE_CODE_AND_RODATA applies to all BL images.
