xlat lib: Use mmap_attr_t type consistently

This patch modifies both versions of the translation table library
to use the mmap_attr_t type consistently wherever it is manipulating
MT_* attributes variables. It used to use mmap_attr_t or plain integer
types interchangeably, which compiles fine because an enumeration type
can be silently converted to an integer, but which is semantically
incorrect.

This patch removes this assumption by using the abstract type
'mmap_attr_t' all the time.

Control inclusion of helper code used for asserts

Many asserts depend on code that is conditionally compiled based on the
DEBUG define. This patch modifies the conditional inclusion of such code
so that it is based on the ENABLE_ASSERTIONS build option.

Add support to change xlat_tables to non-cacheable

This patch adds an additional flag `XLAT_TABLE_NC` which marks the
translation tables as Non-cacheable for MMU accesses.

Apply workaround for errata 813419 of Cortex-A57

TLBI instructions for EL3 won't have the desired effect under specific
circumstances in Cortex-A57 r0p0. The workaround is to execute DSB and
TLBI twice each time.

Even though this errata is only needed in r0p0, the current errata
framework is not prepared to apply run-time workarounds. The current one
is always applied if compiled in, regardless of the CPU or its revision.

This errata has been enabled for Juno.

The `DSB` instruction used when initializing the translation tables has
been changed to `DSB ISH` as an optimization and to be consistent with
the barriers used for the workaround.

Add dynamic region support to xlat tables lib v2

Added APIs to add and remove regions to the translation tables
dynamically while the MMU is enabled. Only static regions are allowed
to overlap other static ones (for backwards compatibility).

A new private attribute (MT_DYNAMIC / MT_STATIC) has been added to
flag each region as such.

The dynamic mapping functionality can be enabled or disabled when
compiling by setting the build option PLAT_XLAT_TABLES_DYNAMIC to 1
or 0. This can be done per-image.

TLB maintenance code during dynamic table mapping and unmapping has
also been added.

Fixes ARM-software/tf-issues#310

Improve debug output of the translation tables

The printed output has been improved in two ways:

- Whenever multiple invalid descriptors are found, only the first one
is printed, and a line is added to inform about how many descriptors
have been omitted.

- At the beginning of each line there is an indication of the table
level the entry belongs to. Example of the new output:
`[LV3] VA:0x1000 PA:0x1000 size:0x1000 MEM-RO-S-EXEC`

Add version 2 of xlat tables library

The folder lib/xlat_tables_v2 has been created to store a new version
of the translation tables library for further modifications in patches
to follow. At the moment it only contains a basic implementation that
supports static regions.

This library allows different translation tables to be modified by
using different 'contexts'. For now, the implementation defaults to
the translation tables used by the current image, but it is possible
to modify other tables than the ones in use.

Added a new API to print debug information for the current state of
the translation tables, rather than printing the information while
the tables are being created. This allows subsequent debug printing
of the xlat tables after they have been changed, which will be useful
when dynamic regions are implemented in a patch to follow.

The common definitions stored in `xlat_tables.h` header have been moved
to a new file common to both versions, `xlat_tables_defs.h`.

All headers related to the translation tables library have been moved to
a the subfolder `xlat_tables`.
