da04341ed5 build: always prefix section names with .
Some of our specialized sections are not prefixed with the conventional
period. The compiler uses input section names to derive certain other
section names (e.g. `.rela.text`, `.relacpu_ops`), and these can be
difficult to select in linker scripts when there is a lack of a
delimiter.

This change introduces the period prefix to all specialized section
names.

BREAKING-CHANGE: All input and output linker section names have been
 prefixed with the period character, e.g. `cpu_ops` -> `.cpu_ops`.

09d40e0e08 Sanitise includes across codebase
Enforce full include path for includes. Deprecate old paths.

The following folders inside include/lib have been left unchanged:

- include/lib/cpus/${ARCH}
- include/lib/el3_runtime/${ARCH}

The reason for this change is that having a global namespace for
includes isn't a good idea. It defeats one of the advantages of having
folders and it introduces problems that are sometimes subtle (because
you may not know the header you are actually including if there are two
of them).

For example, this patch had to be created because two headers were
called the same way: e0ea0928d5 ("Fix gpio includes of mt8173 platform
to avoid collision."). More recently, this patch has had similar
problems: 46f9b2c3a2 ("drivers: add tzc380 support").

This problem was introduced in commit 4ecca33988 ("Move include and
source files to logical locations"). At that time, there weren't too
many headers so it wasn't a real issue. However, time has shown that
this creates problems.

Platforms that want to preserve the way they include headers may add the
removed paths to PLAT_INCLUDES, but this is discouraged.

cb4adb0d8c FVP: Reclaim init code for the stack
Map the initialization code for BL31 to overlap with the memory
required for the secondary cores stack. Once BL31 has been
initialized the memory can be remapped to RW data so that it can
be used for secondary cores stacks. By moving code from .text to
.text.init the size of the BL31 image is decreased by a page.

Split arm_common.ld.S into two linker scripts, one for tzc_dram
(arm_tzc_dram.ld.S) and one for reclaiming initialization code
(arm_reclaim_init.ld.S) so that platforms can chose which memory
regions they wish to include.
