fix(cm): deprecate use of NS_TIMER_SWITCH

On AArch64, secure world has it's own EL3 physical timer registers
accessible to secure EL1 in absence of S-EL2. With S-EL2 there is
virtualized view available for EL1 timer registers. So it is
unreasonable for secure world to use non-secure EL1 physical timer
registers. Moreover, the non-secure operating system (Linux in our case)
relies heavily on these EL1 physical timer registers for scheduling
decisions. If NS_TIMER_SWITCH is enabled, it simply breaks the preemption
model of the non-secure world by disabling non-secure timer interrupts
leading to RCU stalls being observed on long running secure world tasks.

The only arch timer register which will benefit from context management
is cntkctl_el1: Counter-timer Kernel Control Register. This enables the
secure and non-secure worlds to independently control accesses to EL0
for counter-timer registers. This is something that OP-TEE uses to
enable ftrace feature for Trusted Applications and SPM_MM uses for EL0
access as well.

Lets enable context management of cntkctl_el1 by default and deprecate
conditional context management of non-secure EL1 physical timer
registers for whom there isn't any upstream user. With that deprecate
this NS_TIMER_SWITCH build option which just adds confusion for the
platform maintainers. It will be eventually dropped following
deprecation policy of TF-A.

refactor(spm-mm): reorganize secure partition manager shim code

In preparation for adding the support for SEL0 SP in EL3 SPMC,
restructure the existing SPM_MM shim code in a way that allows reuse
of the code for both SPM_MM interface and FF-A EL3 SPMC interface. The
code for changing exception levels is identical for both.

With this restructuring of the code, the shim exception code is moved to
the common sub-directory.

feat(cpufeat): enable FEAT_SVE for FEAT_STATE_CHECKED

Add support for runtime detection (ENABLE_SVE_FOR_NS=2), by splitting
sve_supported() into an ID register reading function and a
second function to report the support status. That function considers
both build time settings and runtime information (if needed), and is
used before we do SVE specific setup.

Change the FVP platform default to the now supported dynamic
option (=2), so the right decision can be made by the code at runtime.

feat(spm_mm): add support to save and restore fp regs

Add the support to save Nwd's floating point registers before switching
to SEL0 and then restore it after coming out of it. Emit a warning
message if SPM_MM is built with CTX_INCLUDE_FPREGS == 0

There is no need to save FP registers of SEL0 because secure partitions
run to completion.

This change is used to prevent context corruption if secure partition
enabled and Nwd decide to use floating point registers.

refactor(spm_mm): reorganize secure partition manager code

In preparation for adding the EL3 SPMC configuration as defined in
the FF-A specification, restructure the existing SPM_MM code.

With this restructuring of the code, the 'spm_mm' directory is
renamed as 'spm' and the code inside has been split into two
sub-directories named 'common' and 'spm_mm'. The code in 'spm_mm'
directory contains the code that implements the MM interface.
In subsequent patches, the 'spmc' directory will be introduced
under the 'spm' directory providing the code that implements
the 'FF-A' interface.

Currently the common functionality for S-EL1 partitions is
limited to assembler functions to enter and exit an SP
synchronously.
