Currently MDCR_EL3 register value is same for all the
worlds(Non-secure, Secure, Realm and Root).
With this approach, features enable/disable settings
remain same across all the worlds. This is not ideal as
there must be flexibility in controlling feature as per
the requirements for individual world.
The patch addresses this by providing MDCR_EL3 a per world
value. Features with identical values for all the worlds are
grouped under ``manage_extensions_common`` API.

Combining the EL2 and EL3 enablement code necessitates that it must be
called at el3_exit, which is the only place with enough context to make
the decision of what needs to be set.
Decouple them to allow them to be called from elsewhere.

For builds where we don't have a certain feature enabled, we provide
empty stub xxx_enable() functions in a header file. This way we
avoid #ifdef's in the code, and can call the enable function
unconditionally. When compiling with -O1 or higher, the compiler will
even optimise out the whole call, so the symbol will never make it into
any object file.
When compiling with optimisations turned off, the function stub will
survive, and could make it into multiple object files, which would lead
to a multiple definitons error.
Avoid this by defining those stub functions as "static inline". The
"static" will avoid the multiple definitions problems, the "inline" will
avoid a potential compiler warning about unused functions.
This patterns is used extensively in the Linux kernel.

Currently most of the architectural feature build flags are set
to 2(FEATURE_STATE_CHECK) for fvp platform only.
However other platforms still configure them by default to 0, which
would lead to build failures in cases when compiler configured
to build TF-A with zero optimization (CFLAGS='-O0').
This patch addresses such build issues and thereby resolves the failures
seen under CI-l3 test_configurations.

This patch enables access to the branch record buffer control registers
in non-secure EL2 and EL1 using the new build option ENABLE_BRBE_FOR_NS.
It is disabled for all secure world, and cannot be used with ENABLE_RME.
This option is disabled by default, however, the FVP platform makefile
enables it for FVP builds.
