refactor(console): disable getc() by default

The ability to read a character from the console constitutes an attack
vector into TF-A, as it gives attackers a means to inject arbitrary
data into TF-A. It is dangerous to keep that feature enabled if not
strictly necessary, especially in production firmware builds.

Thus, we need a way to disable this feature. Moreover, when it is
disabled, all related code should be eliminated from the firmware
binaries, such that no remnant/dead getc() code remains in memory,
which could otherwise be used as a gadget as part of a bigger security
attack.

This patch disables getc() feature by default. For legitimate getc()
use cases [1], it can be explicitly enabled by building TF-A with
ENABLE_CONSOLE_GETC=1.

The following changes are introduced when getc() is disabled:

- The multi-console framework no longer provides the console_getc()
function.

- If the console driver selected by the platform attempts to register
a getc() callback into the multi-console framework then TF-A will
now fail to build.

If registered through the assembly function finish_console_register():
- On AArch64, you'll get:
Error: undefined symbol CONSOLE_T_GETC used as an immediate value.
- On AArch32, you'll get:
Error: internal_relocation (type: OFFSET_IMM) not fixed up

If registered through the C function console_register(), this requires
populating a struct console with a getc field, which will trigger:
error: 'console_t' {aka 'struct console'} has no member named 'getc'

- All console drivers which previously registered a getc() callback
have been modified to do so only when ENABLE_CONSOLE_GETC=1.

[1] Example of such use cases would be:
- Firmware recovery: retrieving a golden BL2 image over the console in
order to repair a broken firmware on a bricked board.
- Factory CLI tool: Drive some soak tests through the console.

Don't return error information from console_flush

We ignore the error information return by console_flush in _every_
place where we call it, and casting the return type to void does not
work around the MISRA violation that this causes. Instead, we collect
the error information from the driver (to avoid changing that API), and
don't return it to the caller.

Sanitise includes across codebase

Enforce full include path for includes. Deprecate old paths.

The following folders inside include/lib have been left unchanged:

- include/lib/cpus/${ARCH}
- include/lib/el3_runtime/${ARCH}

The reason for this change is that having a global namespace for
includes isn't a good idea. It defeats one of the advantages of having
folders and it introduces problems that are sometimes subtle (because
you may not know the header you are actually including if there are two
of them).

For example, this patch had to be created because two headers were
called the same way: e0ea0928d5b7 ("Fix gpio includes of mt8173 platform
to avoid collision."). More recently, this patch has had similar
problems: 46f9b2c3a282 ("drivers: add tzc380 support").

This problem was introduced in commit 4ecca33988b9 ("Move include and
source files to logical locations"). At that time, there weren't too
many headers so it wasn't a real issue. However, time has shown that
this creates problems.

Platforms that want to preserve the way they include headers may add the
removed paths to PLAT_INCLUDES, but this is discouraged.

drivers/console: Link console framework code by default

This patch makes the build system link the console framework code by
default, like it already does with other common libraries (e.g. cache
helpers). This should not make a difference in practice since TF is
linked with --gc-sections, so the linker will garbage collect all
functions and data that are not referenced by any other code. Thus, if a
platform doesn't want to include console code for size reasons and
doesn't make any references to console functions, the code will not be
included in the final binary.

To avoid compatibility issues with older platform ports, only make this
change for the MULTI_CONSOLE_API.

Multi-console: Deprecate the `finish_console_register` macro

The `finish_console_register` macro is used by the multi console
framework to register the `console_t` driver callbacks. It relied
on weak references to the `ldr` instruction to populate 0 to the
callback in case the driver has not defined the appropriate
function. Use of `ldr` instruction to load absolute address to a
reference makes the binary position dependant. These instructions
should be replaced with adrp/adr instruction for position independant
executable(PIE). But adrp/adr instructions don't work well with weak
references as described in GNU ld bugzilla issue 22589.

This patch defines a new version of `finish_console_register` macro
which can spcify which driver callbacks are valid and deprecates the
old one. If any of the argument is not specified, then the macro
populates 0 for that callback. Hence the functionality of the previous
deprecated macro is preserved. The USE_FINISH_CONSOLE_REG_2 define
is used to select the new variant of the macro and will be removed
once the deprecated variant is removed.

All the upstream console drivers have been migrated to use the new
macro in this patch.

NOTE: Platforms be aware that the new variant of the
`finish_console_register` should be used and the old variant is
deprecated.
