refactor(psci): unify coherency exit between AArch64 and AArch32

The procedure is fairly simple: if we have hardware assisted coherency,
call into the cpu driver and let it do its thing. If we don't, then we
must turn data caches off, handle the confusion that causes with the
stack, and call into the cpu driver which will flush the caches that
need flushing.

On AArch32 the above happens in common code. On AArch64, however, the
turning off of the caches happens in the cpu driver. Since we're dealing
with the stack, we must exercise control over it and implement this in
assembly. But as the two implementations are nominally different (in the
ordering of operations), the part that is in assembly is quite large as
jumping back to C to handle the difference might involve the stack.

Presumably, the AArch difference was introduced in order to cater for a
possible implementation where turning off the caches requires an IMP DEF
sequence. Well, Arm no longer makes cores without hardware assisted
coherency, so this eventually is not possible.

So take this part out of the cpu driver and put it into common code,
just like in AArch32. With this, there is no longer a need call
prepare_cpu_pwr_dwn() in a different order either - we can delay it a
bit to happen after the stack management. So the two AArch-s flows
become identical. We can convert prepare_cpu_pwr_dwn() to C and leave
psci_do_pwrdown_cache_maintenance() only to exercise control over stack.

perf(cpus): make reset errata do fewer branches

Errata application is painful for performance. For a start, it's done
when the core has just come out of reset, which means branch predictors
and caches will be empty so a branch to a workaround function must be
fetched from memory and that round trip is very slow. Then it also runs
with the I-cache off, which means that the loop to iterate over the
workarounds must also be fetched from memory on each iteration.

We can remove both branches. First, we can simply apply every erratum
directly instead of defining a workaround function and jumping to it.
Currently, no errata that need to be applied at both reset and runtime,
with the same workaround function, exist. If the need arose in future,
this should be achievable with a reset + runtime wrapper combo.

Then, we can construct a function that applies each erratum linearly
instead of looping over the list. If this function is part of the reset
function, then the only "far" branches at reset will be for the checker
functions. Importantly, this mitigates the slowdown even when an erratum
is disabled.

The result is ~50% speedup on N1SDP and ~20% on AArch64 Juno on wakeup
from PSCI calls that end in powerdown. This is roughly back to the
baseline of v2.9, before the errata framework regressed on performance
(or a little better). It is important to note that there are other
slowdowns since then that remain unknown.

perf(cpus): inline the reset function

Similar to the cpu_rev_var and cpu_ger_rev_var functions, inline the
call_reset_handler handler. This way we skip the costly branch at no
extra cost as this is the only place where this is called.

While we're at it, drop the options for CPU_NO_RESET_FUNC. The only cpus
that need that are virtual cpus which can spare the tiny bit of
performance lost. The rest are real cores which can save on the check
for zero.

Now is a good time to put the assert for a missing cpu in the
get_cpu_ops_ptr function so that it's a bit better encapsulated.

arm_fpga: Add support for unknown MPIDs

This patch allows the system to fallback to a default CPU library
in case the MPID does not match with any of the supported ones.

This feature can be enabled by setting SUPPORT_UNKNOWN_MPID build
option to 1 (enabled by default only on arm_fpga platform).

This feature can be very dangerous on a production image and
therefore it MUST be disabled for Release images.
