This allows the debugger to print the callstack when there is an
assembly function in the callstack.
It will work as long as the CFA pointer (frame pointer) location is not
modified (i.e. x29 is not touched in AArch64 state). It is the case in
almost all assembly functions, so this patch improves the average
debugging experience. Call stacks from the debugger should still be
interpreted with care. In more complex functions, one could use .cfi*
directives to inform the debugger about the new location of the CFA
pointer.

This patch adds various assembly helpers for AArch32 like :
* cache management : Functions to flush, invalidate and clean
cache by MVA. Also helpers to do cache operations by set-way
are also added.
* stack management: Macros to declare stack and get the current
stack corresponding to current CPU.
* Misc: Macros to access co processor registers in AArch32,
macros to define functions in assembly, assert macros, generic
`do_panic()` implementation and function to zero block of memory.

This patch moves assembler macros which are not architecture specific
to a new file `asm_macros_common.S` and moves the `el3_common_macros.S`
into `aarch64` specific folder.
