16550: Use generic console_t data structure

Since now the generic console_t structure holds the UART base address as
well, let's use that generic location and drop the UART driver specific
data structure at all.

console: 16550: Prepare for skipping initialisation

On some platforms the UART might have already been initialised, for
instance by firmware running before TF-A or by a separate management
processor. In this case it would not be need to initialise it again
(doing so could create spurious characters). But more importantly this
saves us from knowing the right baudrate and the right base clock rate
for the UART. This can lead to more robust and versatile firmware builds.

Allow to skip the 16550 UART initialisation and baud rate divisor
programming, by interpreting an input clock rate of "0" to signify this
case. This will just skip the call to console_16550_core_init, but still
will register the console properly.

Users should just pass 0 as the second parameter, the baudrate (third
parameter) will then be ignored as well.

Fix copy & paste typos in comments for the console_16550_register()
function on the way.

Replace __ASSEMBLY__ with compiler-builtin __ASSEMBLER__

NOTE: __ASSEMBLY__ macro is now deprecated in favor of __ASSEMBLER__.

All common C compilers predefine a macro called __ASSEMBLER__ when
preprocessing a .S file. There is no reason for TF-A to define it's own
__ASSEMBLY__ macro for this purpose instead. To unify code with the
export headers (which use __ASSEMBLER__ to avoid one extra dependency),
let's deprecate __ASSEMBLY__ and switch the code base over to the
predefined standard.

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.

Standardise header guards across codebase

All identifiers, regardless of use, that start with two underscores are
reserved. This means they can't be used in header guards.

The style that this project is now to use the full name of the file in
capital letters followed by 'H'. For example, for a file called
"uart_example.h", the header guard is UART_EXAMPLE_H.

The exceptions are files that are imported from other projects:

- CryptoCell driver
- dt-bindings folders
- zlib headers
