Enable use of FIQs and IRQs as TSP interrupts
On a GICv2 system, interrupts that should be handled in the secure world are typically signalled as FIQs. On a GICv3 system, these interrupts are signalled as IRQs instead. The mechanism for handling both types of interrupts is the same in both cases. This patch enables the TSP to run on a GICv3 system by:
1. adding support for handling IRQs in the exception handling code. 2. removing use of "fiq" in the names of data structures, macros and functions.
The build option TSPD_ROUTE_IRQ_TO_EL3 is deprecated and is replaced with a new build flag TSP_NS_INTR_ASYNC_PREEMPT. For compatibility reasons, if the former build flag is defined, it will be used to define the value for the new build flag. The documentation is also updated accordingly.

Unify interrupt return paths from TSP into the TSPD
The TSP is expected to pass control back to EL3 if it gets preempted due to an interrupt while handling a Standard SMC in the following scenarios:
Unify interrupt return paths from TSP into the TSPD
The TSP is expected to pass control back to EL3 if it gets preempted due to an interrupt while handling a Standard SMC in the following scenarios:
1. An FIQ preempts Standard SMC execution and that FIQ is not a TSP Secure timer interrupt or is preempted by a higher priority interrupt by the time the TSP acknowledges it. In this case, the TSP issues an SMC with the ID as `TSP_EL3_FIQ`. Currently this case is never expected to happen as only the TSP Secure Timer is expected to generate FIQ.
2. An IRQ preempts Standard SMC execution and in this case the TSP issues an SMC with the ID as `TSP_PREEMPTED`.
In both the cases, the TSPD hands control back to the normal world and returns returns an error code to the normal world to indicate that the standard SMC it had issued has been preempted but not completed.
This patch unifies the handling of these two cases in the TSPD and ensures that the TSP only uses TSP_PREEMPTED instead of separate SMC IDs. Also instead of 2 separate error codes, SMC_PREEMPTED and TSP_EL3_FIQ, only SMC_PREEMPTED is returned as error code back to the normal world.
Background information: On a GICv3 system, when the secure world has affinity routing enabled, in 2. an FIQ will preempt TSP execution instead of an IRQ. The FIQ could be a result of a Group 0 or a Group 1 NS interrupt. In both case, the TSPD passes control back to the normal world upon receipt of the TSP_PREEMPTED SMC. A Group 0 interrupt will immediately preempt execution to EL3 where it will be handled. This allows for unified interrupt handling in TSP for both GICv3 and GICv2 systems.

Support asynchronous method for BL3-2 initialization
This patch adds support for BL3-2 initialization by asynchronous method where BL3-1 transfers control to BL3-2 using world switch. After BL3-2 initialization, it transfers control to BL3-3 via SPD service handler. The SPD service handler initializes the CPU context to BL3-3 entrypoint depending on the return function indentifier from TSP initialization.
Fixes ARM-software/TF-issues#184
