PIE: Position Independant Executable support for BL31

This patch introduces Position Independant Executable(PIE) support
in TF-A. As a initial prototype, only BL31 can support PIE. A trivial
dynamic linker is implemented which supports fixing up Global Offset
Table(GOT) and Dynamic relocations(.rela.dyn). The fixup_gdt_reloc()
helper function implements this linker and this needs to be called
early in the boot sequence prior to invoking C functions. The GOT is
placed in the RO section of BL31 binary for improved security and the
BL31 linker script is modified to export the appropriate symbols
required for the dynamic linker.

The C compiler always generates PC relative addresses to linker symbols
and hence referencing symbols exporting constants are a problem when
relocating the binary. Hence the reference to the
`__PERCPU_TIMESTAMP_SIZE__` symbol in PMF is removed and is now calculated
at runtime based on start and end addresses.

PIE: Use PC relative adrp/adr for symbol reference

This patch fixes up the AArch64 assembly code to use
adrp/adr instructions instead of ldr instruction for
reference to symbols. This allows these assembly
sequences to be Position Independant. Note that the
the reference to sizes have been replaced with
calculation of size at runtime. This is because size
is a constant value and does not depend on execution
address and using PC relative instructions for loading
them makes them relative to execution address. Also
we cannot use `ldr` instruction to load size as it
generates a dynamic relocation entry which must *not*
be fixed up and it is difficult for a dynamic loader
to differentiate which entries need to be skipped.

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.

AArch64: Enable lower ELs to use pointer authentication

Pointer authentication is an Armv8.3 feature that introduces
instructions that can be used to authenticate and verify pointers.

Pointer authentication instructions are allowed to be accessed from all
ELs but only when EL3 explicitly allows for it; otherwise, their usage
will trap to EL3. Since EL3 doesn't have trap handling in place, this
patch unconditionally disables all related traps to EL3 to avoid
potential misconfiguration leading to an unhandled EL3 exception.

Fixes ARM-software/tf-issues#629

backtrace: Introduce backtrace function

This function diplays the backtrace, the current EL and security state
to allow a post-processing tool to choose the right binary to interpret
the dump.

The output can be fed to GNU addr2line to resolve function names given
an ELF binary compiled with debug information. The "-i" flag is
recommended to improve display in case of inlined functions. The *.dump
files generated during the build process can also be used.

The function works in AArch64 and AArch32. In AArch32 it only works in
A32 mode (without T32 interworking), which is enforced in the Makefile.

Sample output of a backtrace at EL3:

BACKTRACE: START: function_name
0: EL3: 0x798
1: EL3: 0x538
2: EL3: 0x550
3: EL3: 0x55c
4: EL3: 0x568
5: EL3: 0x5a8
6: EL3: 0xf4
BACKTRACE: END: function_name

In order to enable it the new option ENABLE_BACKTRACE must be set to 1.
This option is set to 1 by default only in AArch64 debug builds. As
usual, it can be overridden by the platform makefile and in the build
command line.
