Add basic support for Raspberry Pi 4

The Raspberry Pi 4 is a single board computer with four Cortex-A72
cores. From a TF-A perspective it is quite similar to the Raspberry Pi
3, although it comes with more memory (up to 4GB) and has a GIC.

This initial port though differs quite a lot from the existing rpi3
platform port, mainly due to taking a much simpler and more robust
approach to loading the non-secure payload:
The GPU firmware of the SoC, which is responsible for initial platform
setup (including DRAM initialisation), already loads the kernel, device
tree and the "armstub" into DRAM. We take advantage of this, by placing
just a BL31 component into the armstub8.bin component, which will be
executed first, in AArch64 EL3.
The non-secure payload can be a kernel or a boot loader (U-Boot or
EDK-2), disguised as the "kernel" image and loaded by the GPU firmware.

So this is just a BL31-only port, which directly drops into EL2
and executes whatever has been loaded as the "kernel" image, handing
over the DTB address in x0.
