refactor(docs): deduplicate PSCI documentation

It is already described in the porting guide and context management
sections so it's largely redundant. It also hasn't been updated for a
while despite lots going on around PSCI so it's clearly not read often.
The only part that isn't is that for describing a new secure dispatcher,
which belongs in the porting guide.

docs(build): clarify getting started section

The Getting started section is very difficult to follow. Building the
fip comes before building the files it needs, the BL33 requirement is
given in a somewhat hand wavy way, and the Arm Developer website
download provides a lot of targets and the guide is not clear which ones
are needed on download.

Swapping the initial build and supporting tools sections makes the flow
more natural and the supporting tools section then becomes clear.
Explicitly mentioning the GCC targets avoids confusion for people less
familiar with the project (eg. new starters).

Set lld as the default linker for Clang builds

The LLVM linker replaces the GNU linker as default for the link on Clang
builds. It is possible to override the default linker by setting the LD build
flag.

The patch also updates the TF-A doc.

doc: Split the User Guide into multiple files

The User Guide document has grown organically over time and
now covers a wide range of topics, making it difficult to
skim read and extract information from. Currently, it covers
these topics and maybe a couple more:

- Requirements (hardware, tools, libs)
- Checking out the repo
- Basic build instructions
- A comprehensive list of build flags
- FIP packaging
- Building specifically for Juno
- Firmware update images
- EL3 payloads
- Preloaded BL33 boot flow
- Running on FVPs
- Running on Juno

I have separated these out into a few groups that become new
documents. Broadly speaking, build instructions for the tools,
for TF-A generally, and for specific scenarios are separated.
Content relating to specific platforms (Juno and the FVPs are
Arm-specific platforms, essentially) has been moved into the
documentation that is specific to those platforms, under
docs/plat/arm.
