Enable platforms to omit some bootloaders

If a platform doesn't specify a BLx_SOURCE variable, then building
of the corresponding bootloader isn't attempted. Also allow BL3-3 to
be omitted from the FIP.

Note, this change also removes support for PLAT=all and the 'fip' target
from the 'all' recipe.

Update Makefiles to get proper dependency checking working.

This change requires all platforms to now specify a list of source files
rather than object files.

New source files should preferably be specified by using the path as
well and we should add this in the future for all files so we can remove
use of vpath. This is desirable because vpath hides issues like the fact
that BL2 currently pulls in a BL1 file bl1/aarch64/early_exceptions.S
and if in the future we added bl2/aarch64/early_exceptions.S then it's
likely only one of the two version would be used for both bootloaders.

This change also removes the 'dump' build target and simply gets
bootloaders to always generate a dump file. At the same time the -x
option is added so the section headers and symbols table are listed.

Fix implementation and users of gicd_set_ipriorityr()

Make gicd_set_ipriorityr() actually write to the priority register.

Also correct callers of this function which want the highest priority
to use the value zero as this is the highest priority value according
to the ARM Generic Interrupt Controller Architecture Specification.

To make this easier to get right, we introduce defines for the lowest
and highest priorities for secure and non-secure interrupts.

Fix assert in bakery_lock_release()

bakery_lock_release() expects an mpidr as the first argument however
bakery_lock_release() is calling it with the 'entry' argument it has

much more efficient to just replace the call with

assert(bakery->owner == entry)

As this leaves no remaining users of bakery_lock_held(), we might as
well delete it.

Implement late binding for runtime hooks

At present SPD power management hooks and BL3-2 entry are implemented
using weak references. This would have the handlers bound and registered
with the core framework at build time, but leaves them dangling if a
service fails to initialize at runtime.

This patch replaces implementation by requiring runtime handlers to
register power management and deferred initialization hooks with the
core framework at runtime. The runtime services are to register the
hooks only as the last step, after having all states successfully
initialized.

Rework arithmetic operations in Test Secure Payload

This patch reworks the service provided by the TSP to perform common
arithmetic operations on a set of arguments provided by the non-secure
world. For a addition, division, subtraction & multiplication operation
requested on two arguments in x0 and x1 the steps are:

1. TSPD saves the non-secure context and passes the operation and its
arguments to the TSP.

2. TSP asks the TSPD to return the same arguments once again. This
exercises an additional SMC path.

3. TSP now has two copies of both x0 and x1. It performs the operation
on the corresponding copies i.e. in case of addition it returns x0+x0
and x1+x1.

4. TSPD receives the result, saves the secure context, restores the
non-secure context and passes the result back to the non-secure
client.

Add power management support in the SPD

This patch implements a set of handlers in the SPD which are called by
the PSCI runtime service upon receiving a power management
operation. These handlers in turn pass control to the Secure Payload
image if required before returning control to PSCI. This ensures that
the Secure Payload has complete visibility of all power transitions in
the system and can prepare accordingly.
